Cover

The Publication cover is a native Ghost feature used to visually represent your site in different ways.

By default, it appears as the Open Graph image (og:image) when your site is shared on social media.

In the Glide theme, the publication cover is also displayed in the hero section on the homepage.

To upload or change the cover image:

1

Access Ghost Admin

  • Log in to your Ghost Admin at yoursite.com/ghost

2

Go to Brand Settings

  • Navigate to Settings > Site > Design & branding yoursite.com/ghost/#/settings/design

  • Click the "Customize" button to open the editor.

3

Upload Your Cover

  • Under Publication cover, click "Upload cover" and select your file.

4

Save Changes

  • Click "Save" to apply your cover to the site.

Custom Image for Social Media

If you prefer using a different image for social sharing instead of the publication cover, you can set a custom image for each platform.

In Ghost Admin, go to General settings and click "Edit" under the X card or Facebook card section. There, you can upload a custom image that will be used when your site is shared on those platforms.

Don’t forget to save your changes.
