First steps
Do these once and your site will look right straight away. All of them are in Settings.
- Your name. Go to General, then Title & description. The title is the big name at the top of your homepage.
- A short tagline. In the same place, the description appears in small text under your name, for example “documentary photographer, lisbon”.
- Your menu. Go to Navigation and add three links:
- work, with the address
/ - journal, with the address
/tag/journal/ - about, with the address
/about/
- work, with the address
- An accent color. Go to Design & branding, then Customize, then the Brand tab. New Ghost sites start with a
bright pink, and Index shows the accent on every hover, so change it first. The demo uses fog,
a soft gray (
#E8E8E8). See accent color for more. - Your first project. See make your first project.
- The theme’s own settings. Go to Design & branding, then Customize, then the Theme tab. See site-wide settings.
