Introduction

If you’re in the market for a premium Ghost theme, then you’re in luck. In this article, we’ll be looking at one of the best themes on the market: Groovy.

 

We’ll discuss everything from its performance and features to its support for the latest version of Ghost CMS. So, if you’re thinking of switching to Ghost CMS from WordPress or are simply curious about what Groovy offers, read on!

 

Groovy is a super modern blog theme that’s highly focussed on speed and colors. It’s perfect for anyone who wants to unleash the power of Ghost CMS using a premium template. This template includes two color schemes – solid border and soft shadow.

 

I highly recommend anyone use a premium Ghost theme rather than a free one because a premium theme has many more features and customization options to make your blog look more modern. With easy installation and custom admin options, you rarely need to hire a Ghost developer to edit the theme according to your design taste.

Performance of this Ghost Theme

When looking for a premium Ghost theme, you want one that will perform well. We were so impressed with the results when we tested this theme.

 

It only sends 22 requests and loads in under 765 ms, with a page size of 347.3 KB. 

 

The Pingdom performance test scored 93, with a performance grade of A. And the Google PageSpeed Insights score is 94 for Desktop devices and 84 for mobile. The GTMetrix score is 93%, with a grade of A for performance.

Custom Features of the Theme

This premium Ghost template has many features to help you get the most out of your blog and share your story.

 

First and foremost, the template is highly optimized for speed and colors. This means your blog will load quickly and look fabulous and modern no matter what device your visitors use. It has three layout options for your homepage, where you can list your blogs in a list or masonry style. It also includes a third style called ‘Fast Demo’. We think they use highly optimized features like lazy loading in this demo.

 

Second, the template is compatible with Ghost’s membership and subscription features. You can easily set up a members-only area or sell subscription-based content. The possibilities are endless!

 

Third, the theme includes custom page templates for the subscribe, sign in, sign up, author, and 404 error pages. This gives you much flexibility to create a unique website to your visual taste.

 

The template has four different layouts for the posts – vertical, classic, full cover, and no sidebar. This provides even more flexibility in how you present your content. You can also show the previous and next posts below the article content. It also shows featured posts in the sidebar and in the footer.

 

One stand-out feature of this theme is that it shows a tag cloud in the footer, which looks just beautiful.

 

The template includes advertising sections for Google AdSense to generate more revenue from your blog.

 

Without coding knowledge, you can control most of these settings from the Ghost admin. This makes the theme very easy to use for your blog.

 

For typography, this theme uses Jost and Outfit font. You must edit the theme if you plan to change the fonts. But this might change if the developer adds support for custom fonts from Ghost admin.

Support for the Latest Version of Ghost CMS and Koenig Cards

Are you worried your template won’t be compatible with the latest version of Ghost CMS? Don’t be! This premium theme fully supports the newest version of the Ghost blogging platform, so you can rest easy knowing that it won’t get outdated anytime soon.

 

The theme supports all Koenig blocks, including callouts, toggles, gallery, audio, file uploads, and more.

 

And if you want to add video content to your posts, this template has full support for Vimeo, YouTube, and other popular video hosting services.

 

You’ll also get options for either lazy Disqus comments, which is good for SEO and fast performance, or native Ghost comments. And for added convenience, it also supports secondary navigation.

 

This blogging theme is also developer friendly as it is pre-packaged with SASS (SCSS) and a Prepos 7 config file to help build the setup and theme development process more accessible. This theme has good code quality, so developers can easily understand and edit the HTML/CSS code per their use case.

 

All in all, it’s a powerful and feature-rich template that’ll help you unlock the power of Ghost CMS, and your readers will love to read blogs on your publication.

Features that are missing in this theme

Although this theme standout with its feature-rich customization options. But we think a few features could be added to make it one of the best themes for the Ghost platform.

 

This Ghost theme allows authors to add their social media profiles and supports multi-author. However, this theme does not have the option to share blog articles on social media. This is something that you might want to keep in mind.

 

This theme is colorful, no doubt of that. But now, more and more templates are giving Dark mode features. This theme lacks dark mode, which could be added to make it a better choice for most bloggers.

 

You can see the Previous and Next posts below each article, allowing readers to continue their reading journey from one article to another. But it would be an added improvement if they could show Related Articles below each post or in the sidebar. This can be done based on the tags those posts use.

 

You will not find any carousels or parallax hero sections. But that is a personal choice and depends on how you like your blog to look. Sometimes, even if a theme lacks these gimmicks, it looks visually appealing and is the perfect choice for many bloggers who like a minimal ghost template.

Pricing and Conclusion

So, what’s the final verdict? The premium Ghost CMS template reviewed here is available on Themeforest for a very reasonable price of USD 59. It has already made more than 60 sales and is highly focused on speed and vivid colors.

 

It carries many configurable options in Ghost Admin, and you can control many features without coding knowledge, which can be an advantage to many publishers and content creators.

 

If you are planning to buy a premium ghost template, this one from EstudioPatagon should be on your list. The price is minimal for all its features, and I’m sure it will help you create engaging websites with Ghost CMS.

 

We did not know about the support as we never contacted them directly. But based on the comments on Themeforest, they seem to reply to customers’ queries. You can also email them if you face any issues with the theme. But their preferable way to support customers is via their Ticksy ticket system, where you can raise tickets and get support.

 

This Ghost CMS theme template is an excellent choice for fast, responsive, and translation-ready templates with all the features you need to create a professional online publishing website. They have included the Spanish language in addition to the default English. Personally, it is one of the best ghost themes in recent releases, which can be a favorite of many Ghost users.

  1. thememyghost – January 7, 2023

    We tested the Groovy Ghost template and were impressed with the performance results. It has features to optimize speed and colors and is compatible with Ghost’s membership and subscription features. It includes custom page templates, four different layouts for posts, advertising sections, and a tag cloud in the footer. These don’t require coding knowledge and can be controlled by the Ghost admin. The one downside is that it has no option to share blog articles. Overall for just $59, this theme is a great choice. Grap your copy from ThemeForest now.
