 ## Install the Theme
 
-There are several ways to install the theme:
-
 **1.** For a **new site**, install the `minimal-mistakes-jekyll` theme gem or fork the Minimal Mistakes repo on GitHub following the steps outlined in the [*Quick-Start Guide*]({{ "/docs/quick-start-guide/" | absolute_url }}).
 
-**2.** For an **existing site** follow the **Ruby Gem Method** steps outlined in the [*Quick-Start Guide*]({{ "/docs/quick-start-guide/" | absolute_url }}). If you plan to host with GitHub Pages I suggest you fork and rename the theme's repo, then clone it locally by running `git clone https://github.com/USERNAME/REPONAME.git` --- replacing **USERNAME** and **REPONAME** with your own. 
+If you plan to host with GitHub Pages be sure to properly setup [**jekyll-remote-theme**](https://github.com/benbalter/jekyll-remote-theme) as it is required for the theme to work properly.
