Free service for gift links in Ghost

Hi Ghosters! I wanted to share a service I made that lets members create gift links to paid posts that they can share with others. It’s at https://giftlinks.net/

I mentioned it in a comment on this feature request a few weeks ago, but figured I would start a thread here now that I finally got around to making it open source.

Cool, @eli.

I’m sure I could mess around with Claude Code to figure out how to put this in a better place than the bottom of the menu on the left-hand side. I might revisit that later today.

Yeah, it was tricky to think of a spot that would work with almost any theme. And I’m not much of a designer.

If you look at the section way at the bottom of giftlinks.net it’s got some notes about customizing the styling and placement.

tldr is to put something like this somewhere in your template:

<div class="gl4g-button-wrapper" style="display:none">
  <a href="#" class="gl4g-button gh-btn">Gift this article</a>
</div>

If you add the html yourself it should not try to create the hovering button at the bottom
