How do I log in to Ghost?

1. In the panel, open My servers and click your server.
2. On the Overview tab, wait for the App row to say "Ghost is ready". The page refreshes itself.
3. Click Open app.
4. Log in with the details from the Email and Password rows. There is no setup screen, the owner account is ready.
5. Under Settings, set your site title and your own email address. The install uses a placeholder address.

Further down the page, the Username row and the Password row below it are for SSH. Don't use them to log in to Ghost.

Good to know

• Ghost doesn't send email after the install. For invitations, password resets and member login emails, add mail__transport: SMTP and the settings mail__options__host, mail__options__port, mail__options__auth__user, mail__options__auth__pass and mail__from to /opt/seturack/ghost/compose.yaml, then run docker compose up -d. Bulk newsletters also need a Mailgun account; enter its keys under Settings in the Email newsletter section.
• Your posts and images stay on your server, in Ghost's own data area.
• The site opens over HTTPS on a free sslip.io address based on your IP. If a certificate can't be issued, it opens over http:// instead. Only ports 80, 443 and 22 (for SSH) are open to the outside.
