Northline homepage

Every theme has its own character, without unnecessary extras.

Long-form content, its own template.

Long-form essays, case studies and visual stories each get their own template. A sticky editorial rail keeps bylines legible as imagery scrolls beneath them.

Common questions

Questions, answered.

Which Ghost version does Northline support?
Northline targets Ghost 6.x. The final compatibility statement is confirmed after a clean-install release check by the Northline workstream — see the compatibility note above.
How many sites can I use one license on?
The standard license is single-site. A five-site agency license is planned; pricing for it is not yet finalized.
What happens after my included support period ends?
Every license includes 12 months of updates and support. An optional renewal will be available after that — pricing and terms are not yet finalized.
Can I move from another Ghost theme to Northline?
Yes. Installation documentation explains how to merge Northline's suggested routes.yaml with an existing one rather than overwriting it, so existing routes aren't lost.
