i have been trying everything to get the Mkdocs theme 'material' to work on Mac os , i tried pip to install it and tried the repository cloning method too but still it does not work, the theme displayed is still default,

i changed the mkdocs.yml file to this 

theme: 
name: 'material'

and this too

theme:
name: null
custom_dir: 'mkdocs-material/material'

but i still get the default theme

can someone help me with this? thanx

  • How did you install `mkdocs`? To ensure both are installed to the same Python, run `mkdocs --version` and `pip --version`. Both commands will indicate which Python is associated with that command. They should both point to the same Python installation. If not, edit your question and include the results. – Waylan Dec 27 '19 at 00:29
  • hi, i fixed the issue, it seams like that the issue was installing mkdocs using Brew and material using pip, i have uninstalled everything and i reinstalled them all using pip this time, now everything is working as expected , – Badr Douah Dec 28 '19 at 15:13

    That is what I expected. Brew uses a weird non-conventional way of installing MkDocs which does not allow any third party themes or plugins to work with it. – Waylan Dec 28 '19 at 20:37
