In Detail

Ghost no longer supports Node.js v0.12. It's is no longer maintained as of 31st December 2016. We will continue to recommend using Node v4 with Ghost for the time being - even that this version is not the version recommended for most users by Node.js, it's v6.

Our Node version support follows the Node.js LTS strategy. Full details can always be found at: https://ghost.org/docs/faq/node-versions/.

Furthermore, this release contains two new features.

Redirects

You can now add a redirects JSON file to your content folder to define your own HTTP redirects for your blog. We have written a redirects support guide for it.

AMP is now optional

You can enable or disable AMP in the admin panel under Settings - General - AMP support. If you disable amp, all amp requests will render a 404 page.

How to Upgrade

All Ghost(Pro) users are being automatically updated and will be running Ghost 0.11.4 shortly. You're welcome :)

For people running Ghost on their own servers, you can download Ghost 0.11.4 and then check out the upgrade documentation over on our support site.

Enjoy!
