It's stating you don't have any data in the carousel but have carousel enabled.

Either add data to /data/carousel or set carousel = disable in config.toml

For me, the issue was that I was building the website in RStudio using blogdown and when I set it up, there were some Rmd files in the /content/post/ folder which caused the error. I'll have to go back to read the blogdown book on how to incorporate Rmd files.

Hey @tbs17, would you mind sharing how you resolved the issue? I believe I have a similar problem.

try to add tags: [xxx] in the front matter(the title section) in you .rmd file, then you won't hit the error message like above. Let me know if it works.
