Meridian Ghost Theme
Ghost theme for newsrooms and magazines with newspaper-style layouts, breaking news tools, memberships, reader controls, and deep archives.
Meridian is a ghost theme for Ghost CMS built specifically for newsrooms, editorial magazines, independent journalists, and membership-funded publications. Inspired by the structure of traditional newspapers, it combines a strong editorial hierarchy with modern publishing tools to create a reading experience that feels organized, credible, and focused on the stories. From breaking news coverage to long-form investigations and opinion columns, Meridian provides the framework needed for publications that publish frequently and manage large archives.
This ghost theme offers nine reusable homepage layouts that can be mixed and repeated to create a front page tailored to different editorial needs. News desks can combine feature packages, briefing sections, opinion columns, topic hubs, and story grids while maintaining a consistent visual identity. Meridian also includes newsroom-focused features such as a breaking news ticker, editor’s picks, section navigation, membership conversion elements, reader bookmarks, and customizable mastheads. Every section is managed directly from Ghost Admin, making it practical for editorial teams without requiring custom development.
Meridian is designed to support both readers and publishers. Built-in reader controls allow visitors to adjust text size and appearance, while dark mode, print-friendly articles, video support, memberships, and advertising tools help publications serve different audiences and business models. Optimized for accessibility, SEO, and performance, Meridian is a ghost theme created for professional publishing environments where content organization, reader engagement, and editorial presentation are equally important.
