Komik

Komik is a webcomic theme for the Ghost blogging platform.

Installation

This theme works with Ghost 0.7.4 or newer. You also need to enable the Public Beta API. This is a checkbox at the bottom of your blog's Settings page.

If you are using Ghost.org's Pro platform, follow the instructions at the Ghost support page.

If you are using a Ghost installation in your own server, follow these steps.

  1. Go to the releases page and download the latest release.
  2. If you are hosting your own Ghost installation, unzip the tarball file into content/themes/.
  3. Restart Node. How you do this will depend on your actual server setup.
  4. Login into your blog, go to Settings and pick up komik-theme from the Theme dropdown.

How to use

Publish comics

This theme assumes that you create a new post per comic strip / page. You also must use the featured image setting in your post to upload your picture. You get to this setting by clicking the "gear" icon while editing a post. See this picture:

Featured image setting

Create an archive

This themes can show an archive with a list of all the comics that have been published.

To do that, you just need to create a static page and set comic-archive as its slug (the Post URL field).

Archive settings

In order for this archive page to show up in the menu, you need to add it to the navigation menu. The URL will be http://yourdomain.com/comic-archive. As the title for that menu item you can put whatever you like! Here Archive has been used.

Configuration

This theme ignores the following:

  • The "post per page" setting. It will only display one strip at a time in the main page.
  • Tags will not be displayed.
  • Featured post will not have a special treatment.
  • Blog cover and blog logo (might be taken into account in future releases)

Right not there is nothing to configure, besides what you can normally do.
