Introduction

This documentation serves as a guide to using Meridian — a print-editorial Ghost theme for news publications.

Meridian Ghost CMS theme

Welcome to the documentation for Meridian. This guide will help you install, configure, and get the most out of the theme. It covers everything from the initial setup to editorial conventions, custom theme settings, and the homepage layouts that make Meridian feel like a real newspaper.

Meridian is a print-editorial Ghost theme for news publications — a polished front page, sectioned homepage, asymmetric archives, a built-in member CTA band, a saved-articles page that needs no API key, and reader-controlled typography and dark mode out of the box.

Since this is Ghost theme documentation, it's assumed you already have a basic understanding of how Ghost works. If you're just getting started, we recommend visiting the official Ghost Help Center for general guidance and platform basics.
