Homepage post previews

Show Ghost Preview card content directly in homepage feed posts. This lets selected articles reveal a shaped passage on the homepage before readers open the full post.

1. Go to the 'Design & branding' settings in the Ghost Admin.
2. Open the 'Theme' tab and go to the 'Homepage' section, then find the 'Post preview' position.
3. Choose 'First post' or 'All posts' from the dropdown menu.
4. Click 'Save' to activate.

None – keeps the regular homepage feed cards without showing Preview card content.

First post – shows Preview card content only in the first homepage feed post, which works well when the lead story should feel more editorial. If the first post does not include a Preview card, the theme shows a 100-word content preview instead.

All posts – shows Preview card content for every homepage feed post that includes a Preview card. Posts without a Preview card use a 100-word content preview.

1. Open a post in the Ghost editor.
2. Add a Preview card after the content that should appear on the homepage.
3. Edit the text, cards, or formatting before it to shape the visible preview.
4. Click 'Update' to save the post.
