What are you asking? As the message plainly says, and as documented in

> **[Travis CI Documentation](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/deployment/#pull-requests)**
>
> Deployment

  
PR builds such as this will not trigger deployments. Someone (including you!) would have to run a push build.

If you run a push build, it would run deployment. [https://travis-ci.org/batouche-dev/dashboard/requests?utm\_medium=notification&utm\_source=github\_status](https://travis-ci.org/batouche-dev/dashboard/requests?utm_medium=notification&utm_source=github_status) shows that this feature branch’s push build requests are rejected because the branch name contains `gh-pages`.
