Content & formatting
Dispatch styles the full range of Ghost editor output. The Style Guide post on the live demo shows every supported element rendered with real content — refer to it when you are unsure how a card will look in context.
Typography and prose
Section titled “Typography and prose”Body text is set in a readable serif at a comfortable measure. Headings (H2–H4) use a tighter sans-serif to create clear hierarchy within long articles. Drop caps are not applied by default.
Editor cards
Section titled “Editor cards”- Markdown and HTML — rendered as clean prose with no extra spacing artefacts.
- Image cards — full-width, wide, and normal sizes are all styled. Captions appear beneath in a smaller weight.
- Gallery cards — rendered as a grid; supports two, three, and four columns.
- Bookmark cards — styled as a link-preview block with title, description, and domain.
- Button cards — rendered as a full-width or inline call-to-action button matching the theme’s accent color.
- Toggle cards — collapsible sections with a visible indicator; useful for FAQs or footnotes.
- Callout cards — rendered as a tinted aside block; all built-in background colour variants (grey, blue, green, yellow, red, pink, purple) are styled. Supports the default icon or a custom emoji.
- Product cards — styled as a product listing with image, title, description, and call-to-action button.
- File cards — styled as a download block with filename and file-type indicator.
- Audio cards — styled with a native audio player matching the theme.
- Video cards — styled with a responsive video container.
- Header cards — styled as a large display block with configurable background and text.
- Signup cards — styled as a membership call-to-action matching the theme’s form elements.
- Code blocks — monospace with syntax highlighting via Ghost’s built-in highlighter.
- Tables — styled with alternating row shading for readability.
- Dividers — thin horizontal rules with generous spacing above and below.
- Embed cards — YouTube, Twitter/X, and other oEmbed-compatible URLs are wrapped responsively.
Feature images
Section titled “Feature images”When show_feature_images is enabled, post feature images appear on post cards in the feed and at the top of the article. Disable this setting if your posts do not consistently have feature images, to avoid uneven cards in the feed.
