The Glide theme supports Ghost’s native Recommendations feature. This allows you to suggest other publications to your readers without needing custom pages or extra code.
In line with the theme’s simplicity-first approach, recommendations are displayed using a basic navigation link—no additional setup or theme modifications required.
