Post background colors

Use Daigo’s internal background tags to give individual posts their own header color. You can choose from the built-in light, vibrant, and dark palettes, create a custom tag color in Ghost, or force the default background when a global site color is active.

Step-by-Step
  1. Open the published post and add the appropriate internal tag in the 'Post settings' panel.
  2. For example, add the internal tag #bg-ruby to apply the Ruby background color. Tags prefixed with # are internal tags in Ghost.
  3. Click 'Update' to activate.
The tag slug should be hash-bg-colorname, for example hash-bg-ruby

Tip: How to add a custom color
  1. To add your own post background color, go to the 'Tags' settings in the Ghost Admin.
  2. Open the 'Internal tags' tab and click 'New tag'.
  3. Create a tag such as #bg-arctic and add a color, for example #aac7ff.
  4. Click 'Save'.
  5. Add #bg-arctic in the 'Post settings' panel to the published post and click 'Update' to activate.
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 a specific post to keep Daigo’s default header background. To do this, add the internal tag #bg-default to the published post.

The tag slug should be hash-bg-default
