CUSTOM TEMPLATE SYSTEM

custom-page-fullwidth.hbs

Location: Ghost theme /source-theme-ready/
Purpose: Reusable full-width layout for all major pages

Features:

  • Removes .gh-canvas grid constraint
  • Full-width content (no center column trap)
  • Displays feature images when enabled
  • Automatically hides footer (CSS in template)
  • Available in Ghost editor dropdown as "Page Fullwidth"

Created: v1 (basic), v2 (added feature image), v3 (footer styling attempt), v4 (footer class fix), FINAL (Gemini's complete footer solution)

Footer Hide Solution (Gemini Consultation)

Problem: Footer showing on full-width pages despite CSS attempts
Root Cause: Ghost's CSS Grid uses grid-column constraints, not max-width
Solution: Template-level CSS targeting all footer classes with nuclear obliteration:

.gh-foot, .gh-footer, .site-footer {
    display: none !important;
    visibility: hidden !important;
    height: 0 !important;
    padding: 0 !important;
    margin: 0 !important;
    overflow: hidden !important;
}

Gemini Insight: {{!< default}} means footer is in parent template, can't be removed at HTML level, must hide with CSS

TRINITY BRANDING INTEGRATION

Holly's Arcane Colors - OFFICIAL

Primary: #A855F7 (vibrant purple)
Secondary: #9D4EDD (bright violet)
Accent: #C77DFF (light amethyst)
Dark: #7F00FF (deep purple)
Gradients: Arcane, Arcane Storm, Trinity

Applied: Servers page cards, About page Catalyst section, Special Services section

Trinity Distribution

Fire (🔥): GingerFury/The Emissary - community, passion, warmth
Arcane (⚡): unicorn20089/The Catalyst - creative, transformative, foundation
Frost (❄️): Frostystyle/The Wizard - technical, precision, systems

Order When Listing: Wizard → Emissary → Catalyst

CONSULTANTS - CORRECTED INFORMATION

  1. Butter No Nutters - Cat (Persian-Maine Coon), CEO, The Ice King, Frost alignment
  2. Oscar - Dog (Catahoula Leopard), Chief Security Officer, The Sentinel, Frost alignment

GEMINI CONSULTATIONS

1. Full-Width Layout Issue

Problem: About page content center-heavy despite CSS overrides
Diagnosis: Ghost Source theme uses CSS Grid (grid-column: main-start / main-end), not max-width
Solution:

  • Option 1: kg-width-full class on every <div> (quick fix)
  • Option 2: Create custom-page-fullwidth.hbs template (proper solution - chosen)

Key Learning: max-width changes don't work when CSS Grid controls column placement

2. Footer Visibility on Custom Template

Problem: Footer still showing despite CSS display: none
Diagnosis: Wrong class names (.gh-foot vs .gh-footer), CSS load order issues
Solution: Template-level CSS with complete obliteration of all footer classes

Gemini's Architectural Guidance:

  • Ghost templates inherit from default.hbs via {{!< default}}
  • Header/footer are in parent template, can't be removed at HTML level
  • CSS-only solution is correct approach
  • Target all possible footer classes (.gh-foot, .gh-footer, .site-footer)

IMAGES GENERATED/USED

Trinity Avatars (Fantasy RPG Style)

File: Trinity_avatars.jpg
Style: Epic fantasy art, three founders with Fire/Frost/Arcane powers
Use: Social media, marketing materials (NOT used on website - wrong aesthetic for Minecraft servers)

Style: Minecraft blocky aesthetic with Firefrost logo, Trinity characters, Fire/Frost/Arcane environment
Use: About page feature image (SELECTED for website)

Servers Page (Custom Gemini Generation)

File: 1000019656.png
Prompt: Detailed 700+ word Gemini prompt for Minecraft-style server showcase

File: Gemini_Generated_Image_2w3kza2w3kza2w3k__1_.png

SITE FOOTER CODE INJECTION - UPDATED

Location: Settings → Code injection → Site Footer

Changes Made:

  • Added .gh-footer alongside .gh-foot everywhere
  • Removed failed body.page-template-custom-page-fullwidth hiding attempt (now handled in template)
  • Updated JavaScript to target both .gh-foot and .gh-footer

Final Version: Clean global footer styling, template handles page-specific hiding

GHOST PAGE BUILDER TOOL

File: tools/ghost-page-builder/ghost-page-builder.jsx
Status: Created (Task #70 COMPLETE)

Features:

  • Split-pane editor/preview
  • Live preview with Ghost CSS + Fire/Frost theme
  • Tab key intercept for code editing
  • Two-state debounce (instant + 500ms)
  • Viewport toggle (Desktop/Tablet/Mobile)

Gemini Consultation Documented: docs/tasks/ghost-page-builder/gemini-consultation.md

Key Decisions:

  • srcdoc for iframe preview (not src with blob URLs)
  • Styled textarea (not CodeMirror for v1)
  • Ghost wrapper classes required (.gh-body, .gh-content)
  • Sandbox: allow-same-origin allow-scripts

TASKS UPDATED

Task #52: Ghost CMS Homepage - COMPLETE (Trinity version deployed)

New Tasks Implied (not yet created):

  • Server whitelist setup

  • Navigation verification

DOCUMENTATION UPDATES

Design Bible v2.0

File: docs/planning/design-bible.md
Changes:

  • Added Holly's Arcane palette (official colors documented)
  • Updated philosophy: Fire + Frost → Fire + Frost + Foundation (Trinity)
  • Trinity gradients documented
  • Maintained by: The Trinity (Michael, Meg, Holly)

Pages to Create List

File: docs/tasks/ghost-website-pages/PAGES-TO-CREATE.md
Status: Created with complete page inventory

Phase 1 (Critical): About ✅, Servers ✅, Privacy ✅, Terms ✅
Phase 2 (High): Subscribe, Contact ✅
Phase 3 (Medium): Blog, Discord redirect

KEY LEARNINGS

1. Fire/Frost Paths vs Server Access

Clarification: Fire/Frost are founder/branding elements (Michael = Frost, Meg = Fire, Holly = Arcane), NOT server restrictions. All subscribers can access all servers regardless of tier or "path."

Impact: Servers page redesigned to remove "Choose Your Path" section and Fire/Frost server separation. Colors kept for visual variety only.

2. Privacy Rule (Website Content)

Rule: Nicknames ONLY on public website. Real names only in internal documentation.

Application:

  • ✅ Website: Frostystyle, GingerFury, unicorn20089
  • ❌ Website: Michael, Meg, Holly

3. Accessibility Requirements (Medical Accommodation)

Context: Michael's right hand/arm surgery recovery affects typing

For Code/Commands Michael Executes:

  • Small blocks (8-10 lines max)
  • One command per chunk

For Config Files:

  • View ENTIRE existing file first
  • Return ENTIRE revised file (easy copy/paste)

For Instructions to Others (Holly, Meg, team):

  • Larger cohesive blocks are fine
  • They're copy/pasting to Discord/email

4. Ghost Theme Development Pattern

Workflow:

  1. Download theme from Ghost Admin
  2. Michael uploads .zip to Claude
  3. Claude extracts, modifies, re-zips
  4. Claude presents download link
  5. Michael uploads to Ghost

Reason: Hand-friendly - avoids manual file editing, works with small code blocks
