<![CDATA[I'm new to Ghost. How comes modifying my theme doesnt show?]]>Just installed Ghost!

Modifying theme file in /home/yellowtent/appsdata/5131bf16-d7gfdgfdgfdgdfcd-431d-8c32-4b5e322c7934/data/content/themes/mytheme/default.hbs and saving changes doesn show on my wbesite.

Do I have to launch a rebuild command or something else after each changes?

Do I have to install something on my PC side firt.

Yes, as @girish already said previously you need to install the Cloudron CLI on your PC.

See https://docs.cloudron.io/packaging/cli/ for more info.

You can also cloudron restart --app ghost.domain.com with the CLI tool (CLI tool is installed on your PC and not the server).

Thanks. But what would be the exact command? Do I have to install something on my PC side firt.

Tried these in terminal:

cloudron restart --ghost ghost.domain.com
restart --ghost ghost.domain.com

Both doesn t work. I got thes messages : bash: cloudron: command not found and bash: restart: command not found. Did I missed something? What directory does these command have to be called?

Iteresting. I was not aware that themes are recompiled when Ghost is restarted.

A commandline guide how to recompile updated Themes is shown here:

Now if anyone could show me the command line equivalent, this would be sorted!

Kinda unconvenient to go in Cloudron just for that. Now if anyone could show me the command line equivalent, this would be sorted!

You could reupload the changed theme and then those recompilations are done. The coolest way would be using a GitHub action, though. You can edit the theme on your GitHub repository and the changes can be pushed onto your Ghost. The recompilation is automatically done. Here is the guide how to use it: https://ghost.org/integrations/github/

Itโ€˜s a while ago that I worked with it so sorry if my explanation is a bit weird. Aditionally you can also connect VS Code so you donโ€˜t have to use the rather clunky editor on GitHub.

If someone cares I can check my setup and share with more details.

If i'm on the server terminal (on my PC, in Visua Studio, not the web version), what would be the command?

Changes worked after upgrading the app.

Most likely this is not the upgrade that fixed it but that the app restarted after the upgrade. Looks like Ghost needs you to restart the app when you make theme changes.

Does anyone knows he command to restart the app from command line?

There is a restart button in top of file manager and also top of web terminal. You can also cloudron restart --app ghost.domain.com with the CLI tool (CLI tool is installed on your PC and not the server).

I don't, but you can just do it via the GUI. In the Repair section of the Apps settings there is a Restart App button:

a) did you restart the app after making changes?

No, but is it mandatory after each change to the template? Do you mean restart in cloudron or in command line?

b) is ghost actually using your custom mytheme ?

Yes

How comes modifying my theme doesnt show? on Fri, 20 Oct 2023 15:57:35 GMT]]>@therealwebmaster mmm, why are you editing files straight from the filesystem ? You should use the file manager - https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/#file-manager .

But regardless,

a) did you restart the app after making changes?

b) is ghost actually using your custom mytheme ?
