Ghost Theme: Thred-Inspired

This repository contains a Ghost theme scaffold inspired by the Thred reference layout.

Included

• Three-column editorial shell
• Left sidebar navigation with categories and authors
• Sticky top search trigger with local search overlay
• Homepage hero with tabbed content sections
• Tag and author archive pages
• Post template with membership CTA and comments area
• Light and dark theme toggle

Upload to Ghost

1. Zip the theme files.
2. Upload the zip in Ghost Admin under Settings -> Design -> Change theme.
3. Configure navigation, tags, authors, site icon, and custom footer links in Ghost Admin.

Local development

1. Run npm run dev:ghost:start
2. Open http://localhost:2368/ghost and complete the local Ghost setup
3. Activate the ghost-theme-thred-clone theme in Settings -> Design
4. After theme changes, run npm run dev:ghost:restart
5. To add local sample categories and posts, run npm run dev:seed and import the generated JSON file from Ghost Admin

The local Docker setup syncs only theme-related files into .docker/theme/ghost-theme-thred-clone, so work files such as docs/ or local-ghost/ do not slow down Ghost startup.

Important note

The layout closely follows the provided reference, but Ghost content, membership, comments, and recommendation data depend on the site configuration and content model inside your Ghost installation.
