You may be wondering how to customize the look and feel of your website. Fortunately, Ghost provides a range of design settings that allow you to personalize your site's design to match your brand and personal preferences.
Each theme will have a range of options which can be found in the site settings under the design menu. The available options may differ between the themes, but they generally allow you to upload a logo, set a site icon, select an accent color, and more.
Using these design settings, you have the flexibility to create a unique and professional-looking website that reflects your brand and personality.
For further customization options, you can consider using code injection to add some custom styling or create a custom theme which can offer you endless possibilities.
Access design settings from Settings → Site → Design & branding. Click Customize to open the Design settings. Design settings are organized under several sections.
