Below are examples of Ghost’s expansive editing toolset designed to accommodate the extensive needs of modern creators.
Headings
Header tags are what keep your content away from absolute chaos in terms of visual organization. They help your readers understand your writing, they help search engines determine your content.
Heading 1
Heading 2
Heading 3
Heading 4
Heading 5
Heading 6
Quotes
You can make quotes stand out with two types of blockquote styles that can be applied directly in the editor.
Dear lord, what a sad little life, Jane. You ruined my night completely so you could have the money, but I hope now you spend it on getting some lessons in grace and decorum, because you have all the grace of a reversing dump truck without any tyres on.
And a second style that you can use for larger quotes:
So Jane, take your money and get off my property.

Images
Once you start mixing text and image cards creatively, the whole narrative of the story changes. Suddenly, you're working in a new format. Once inserted you can blend images beautifully into your content at different sizes (Regular, Full, and Wide) and add captions wherever needed.



Gallery
Ghost supports image galleries for up to nine images at a time, all of which are responsively optimised and organised to look their best no matter how many images you add or remove.




Image Gallery
Buttons
Add call-to-action buttons to your posts using button cards. Buttons can be centered or left-aligned, including custom button text and a link to any URL.
Bookmarks
When using a URL with the right meta information, it can show the page title, excerpt, author, publisher and even a preview image. This is a great way to share links from sites that don't have automatic embeds.

Call to action
The Call to action card helps you promote a specific message to the right audience—whether that’s public visitors, free members, or paid members. You can choose to show it in your newsletter, on your website, or both.
Mews - A Ghost Theme
Featured post layouts and tag‑based snippet grids give your homepage editorial weight, while a built‑in table of contents keeps long-form pieces easy to navigate.
Callouts
Ever find yourself wanting to add extra styling to important information in your posts? Well, now you can with callout cards. Each callout card can include an emoji, any length of text with styles and links, and a custom background color.
Signup
The Signup card allows you to insert a custom signup form, directly within the content you create, without needing to code or leave the editor.
Header
Insert a header card to create visual section dividers, that can support multiple layouts, custom images, headings, subheadings, text and calls to action:
