Colors of post background

You can easily add color to the header post background.

Step-by-Step

To add the color of background on post header, just add an adequate internal tag in 'Post settings' panel to the published post.
For example, add an internal tag #bg-ruby (tags which are prefixed by a # character, are internal tags within Ghost).
Click 'Update', to activate.

The tag slug should be hash-bg-colorname, for example hash-bg-ruby

Tip: How to add your own color?

To add your own color, go the 'Tags' settings in the Ghost Admin.
Then, open 'Internal tags' tab and click 'New tag'.
Create for example #bg-arctic and add your color, for example #aac7ff.
Click 'Save', to activate just add #bg-arctic in 'Post settings' panel to the published post.

The tag slug should be hash-bg-colorname, for example hash-bg-arctic

Tip: How to force the default color?

If you are also using a global background color for the whole site, you may want to use a default color for the post – to do this, add #bg-default internal tag to the published post.

The tag slug should be hash-bg-default
