For us Grammarly users, I hope someone with dev experience can work on this.

What’s wrong with Grammarly + Ghost?

It spikes CPU usage - see ✨ Koenig Editor - Beta Release - #48 by Kevin

Right. Unfortunately. I love Grammarly Premium!

This is something interesting to me. However, I can only see memory spikes in my DO dashboard. CPU usage is consistent. I’ll be looking this closely from now on.

@em_div I am a Grammarly basic user.

If you’re using the latest release it’s because grammarly is disabled due to the issue

Yes, I am using the latest release and Firefox rather than chrome. I have a question here: Is it the desktop app related or browser specific issue?

It’s grammarly-specific - The post editor has an attribute which tells grammerly to back off

When I change the time to publish a post the numbers entered appear in both the time picker and in the post. Then the focus switches from the time editor to the content.

Pretty frustrating :slight_smile:

Good catch! I’ll definitely look into getting that fixed :slight_smile:

Another one.

Appears, when I then paste an image the image is appended to the end of the page, not just below the cursor.

Hi. I like the editor. The cards approach is similar to some other tools I used previously.

My issues with Ghost editing are really inherited from the previous Markdown approach (i.e. they apply to both the new and old editor/preview modes):

  • The preview font is too large - can this be changed?
  • In my published version of the site, images are floated left or right, and have a maximum width. So in the current (and old) editor, when it gets to preview, the images are far too large. Which renders the preview mode unusable. Is there a way to suppress images (or cards) in the preview?
  • Similarly, if there were a way to float an image card and give it maximum width (or specify this in markdown without dropping into HTML) I would mind less

I probably need to play a bit more as there are likely some features I’ve missed on the first pass.

@Jesse_Houwing which version of Ghost are you using? I believe this was fixed in 1.24.4, when you open the publish menu the card should be deselected automatically so the caption input won’t capture any key presses.

I’m hosted by ghost.io,so whichever latest version you push out, I see it. Unless it requires changing the theme on my end.

Ghost(pro) is currently on 1.24.3 because 1.24.4 was released outside of the normal release schedule. 1.24.5 should roll out on Ghost(pro) tomorrow.

  • it’s hard to delete the last items if they’re not html or markdown. This is due to the missing delete button on the android/SwiftKey keyboard.

@fixer, @Jesse_Houwing mobile is completely untested at the moment so bugs are expected, thanks for taking the time to report them though :smile:

This is a known issue with mobiledoc-kit on Android. The mobiledoc-team is currently focused on that so it should be resolved fairly soon.
