What is the default login credential for this template @alphasecio?

There is no default credentials, you simply need to sign up.

How to configure Email ? In order to signup ghost needs to send a magic link.


a year ago

You would need to add the needed environment variables as per ghost's documentation.

If you have already deployed the template, add the following variables (with valid details) and redeploy. I'll add the mail configuration to the template as optional too.

mail__from:

mail__transport: SMTP

mail__options__host:

mail__options__port:

mail__options__auth__user:

mail__options__auth__pass:

For bulk email newsletter delivery, you'll also need to configure Mailgun details in Ghost Settings.

I installed this, but can't "Sign Up" (says "Failed to sign up, please try again") and don't have any credentials to "Sign In". How do I proceed? Need to get into the Ghost admin.

Did you try to sign up at https://<railway_url>/ghost? This is for admins.

Thanks! That worked.

Please kindly add that to the template instructions: https://railway.app/template/tcsVLc

Go to code injections in ghost settings and add:

<style>

.gh-powered-by {

display: none;

}

</style>

In ghost it says: "You are running an unsupported database in production. Please upgrade to MySQL 8."
How can I fix that?

Looks like Ghost 6 (the latest release) only certifies MySQL8 for production, hence you see the error message. Although, it does seem to work with other versions too. I've just changed the MySQL image to v8 in the template - please redeploy and let me know if you run into any issues.

I redeployed. Both, ghost and mysql. But the same error info.

Assuming you redeployed existing services? I don't think that will pull template changes, so you'lI have to deploy the template again.

Is it possible to do that while keeping the data?
