Frequently asked questions about Northline, Ghost, and your purchase.
Before you buy
Northline requires Ghost 6.x and a custom-theme-enabled plan: Ghost(Pro) Publisher or higher, or a self-hosted installation. It does not work on Ghost(Pro) Starter.
Northline is designed for independent magazines and long-form editorial publications. If you publish short news or photo portfolios, it may not be the best fit.
Yes. The Northline product page includes a live demo, full screenshots, and public documentation you can review before purchasing.
Installation & setup
Download the ZIP from your purchase email, then upload it in Ghost Admin under Settings > Site > Design & branding. Preview before activating.
No. Your posts, pages, tags, and members are stored in Ghost, not in the theme. Only the design and layout change.
Northline includes a custom routes.yaml file. Back up your existing routes before uploading the new one. Full instructions are in the documentation.
Licensing & billing
One license covers one Ghost site. If you run multiple publications, you need a license for each.
Every Northline purchase includes the theme package, a START-HERE guide, full documentation, 12 months of updates and support, and a single-site license.
Aftertype themes are digital products delivered instantly. Change-of-mind refunds are generally unavailable after delivery begins, but statutory rights and remedies for delivery or conformity issues remain unaffected.
Using the theme
Yes. Most presentation changes can be made through Ghost Admin settings and Code Injection. Direct code edits are allowed but may complicate updates.
Download the new ZIP from your purchase email, upload it as a separate theme version in Ghost Admin, preview your content, then activate. Updates are included for 12 months.
