Style Guide

The style guide provides you with a blueprint of Forma default post and page styles. It is also a great reference for suggested typographic treatment and styles for your content.

Ghost is powered by an editor built from the ground-up for professionals. Calm by design, with advanced workflows by default. No more suffering through clumsy toolbars or drag & oops. Immerse yourself in the story with an interface that's invisible until you need it, and powerful when you do. Below are examples of Ghost’s expansive editing toolset designed to accommodate the extensive needs of modern creators.

Bookmarks

When using a URL with the right meta information, it can show the page title, excerpt, author, publisher and even a preview image. This is a great way to share links from sites that don't have automatic embeds.

Toggles

Use the Toggle card to create collapsible sections of text in your posts and pages. Great for creating distinct sections in your content, or adding an FAQ section.

When should I use Toggles?

Toggles allow you to create collapsible sections of content which is a great way to make your content less overwhelming and easy to navigate. A common example is an FAQ section, like this one.

Lists

Unordered Lists

The HTML <ul> element represents an unordered list of items, typically rendered as a bulleted list.

Usage notes:

  • The <ul> element is for grouping a collection of items that do not have a numerical ordering, and their order in the list is meaningless. Typically, unordered-list items are displayed with a bullet, which can be of several forms, like a dot, a circle or a squared.
  • There is no limitation to the depth and alternation of nested lists defined with the <ol> and <ul> elements.
  • The <ol> and <ul> elements both represent a list of items. They differ in that, with the <ol> element, the order is meaningful.

Ordered Lists

The HTML <ol> element represents an ordered list of items, typically rendered as a numbered list.

Usage notes:

  1. Typically, ordered-list items are displayed with a preceding numbering, which can be of any form, like numerals, letters or Romans numerals or even simple bullets.
  2. There is no limitation to the depth and alternation of nested lists defined with the <ol> and <ul> elements.
  3. The <ol> and <ul> both represent a list of items. They differ in the way that, with the <ol> element, the order is meaningful.
