Why are my commits not showing on my profile?

[josahe]

I am making commits but they are not showing up on my profile. Can anyone help with why?

Here is my profile. It shows that that last contribution I made was on 9th December 2017:

githubprofile.PNG762×598 25.4 KB

Example of commits in past couple of days:

I contacted support who referred me to the below page.

Commits to a fork do not count towards your contributions.

Hello @josahe! I wanted to also mention here that one of our Support people actually wrote an article on this very thing. There’s lots more info and good tips there, as well:
