Hi all,

I am new to static site generating but have begun using eleventy with ghost.  
I gathered from [this post](https://forum.ghost.org/t/using-ghost-as-headless-cms-with-eleventy-theme/9983) that themes do not translate over in any way. But it seems that the cards I choose to format my posts also do not translate over at all. Primarily, I am having trouble with the toggle which renders as a grey box, and all text within is just always shown.

What it looks like on the static site:

The box is still a button, just one that doesn’t do anything.

With Eleventy, you’ll likely need to include Ghost’s JS and CSS for the cards as part of your build process. You can find links to those assets in our docs:
