Cover

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

By default, Ghost uses the cover image as the Open Graph image (og:image) when your site is shared on social media platforms.

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

• Select the Brand section on the right.

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

4

Save Changes

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