Hi all, I’m relatively new to Ghost. I’d like to change the “this post is for subscribers only” text, and I’d like to be able to offer a preview (maybe the first few paragraphs) to people who aren’t subscribers to entice them. Anyone know how to do this?
The second is easy. You need a ‘public preview’ card, which is available on the big plus menu when you’re in the post editor. You also need to set the post access (in the right side menu) to ‘members only’ or ‘paid members only’.
The first requires editing the theme. If your theme doesn’t have a content-cta.hbs in the partials folder, you’d want to grab the default one and put it there, then edit it - here it is:
(Some themes may also have a CTA coded in a different file, so try searching for the exact wording if changes to content-cta.hbs don’t fix you up.)
Thank you so much, Cathy! Public preview is so helpful. On the first one though, where would I find the “content-cta.hbs in the partials folder?” When I’m in settings and looking at the theme, I don’t see anything like that.
You’d need to download the theme, make edits, and upload. It isn’t something you can do in the admin panel.
