Vapor

Minimal and responsive with a focus on typography, Vapor is a theme that embodies the core concept of Ghost—it fades into the background, bringing the focus to your content.

Supports blog and user images; cover images, while supported in the Ghost admin, are not displayed in the theme due to theme's minimal nature and focus on typography.

Fonts embedded via Google Fonts, including Roboto Slab, Merriweather, and Open Sans Condensed.

The Ghost, Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ icons are trademarks of their respective owners and are from the Casper theme, copyright (c) 2013 Ghost Foundation and released under The MIT License.

Other icons provided by Font Awesome and released under SIL OFL 1.1.

What's New?

Hipster Ghost is always running the latest version of Vapor. You can preview all new features there.

New in 1.4: You may now use the {{> menu}} partial to display a custom menu on your pages. This is helpful for linking to certain posts or static pages. To activate this feature, simply remove the ! in {{!> menu}} in default.hbs. Also included are the {{> header-description}} and {{> footer-description}} partials for those using the menu. You can simply add the ! to {{> header-description}} in the header (now located in default.hbs for all posts and pages) to deactivate. Remove the ! from the {{!> footer-description}} partial call on the same page to activate display of the description in the footer. If you want to edit these partials (to add menu items or other content), you'll find them in the /partials directory. If you're using a self-hosted version of Ghost, you may need to restart or reload Ghost in order for the Handlebars partials to recompile after editing. There are also three new commenting options (Disqus, Facebook, and Google+) that follow the same conventions. You'll find these calls in post.hbs and page.hbs. I contend that Disqus is the best of these three options in terms of appearance and responsiveness; YMMV.

See the changelog for a full list of new features in 1.4.

New in 1.3: Blog logos and author images must be at least 100px in height and width, but do not need to be 1:1.

New in 1.2: A LESS file is included which contains variables allowing you to quickly change the theme's stylesheet. However, I've chosen to exclude less.js from the theme and I recommend using a desktop compiler like CodeKit to process your LESS file.
