Members.js

Drop-in script to make the bulk of Ghost membership features work on any theme.

Usage

Add below script in your theme's default.hbs just before the end of body tag OR in the code injection footer in Ghost Admin.

<script defer src="https://unpkg.com/@tryghost/members-js@latest/umd/members.min.js" data-ghost="https://mymemberssite.com"></script>

The data-ghost attribute expects the URL for your site which is the only input Portal needs to work with your site's membership data via Ghost APIs.

NOTE: This is currently under active development and available only behind developer experiments flag - enableDeveloperExperiments in Ghost, which needs to be added to config file before starting the server.

Custom trigger button

By default, the script adds a default floating trigger button on the bottom right of your page which is used to trigger the popup on screen.

Its possible to override the default trigger button with your own by adding data attribute data-portal to any HTML tag on page, which will hide the default trigger and allow controlling the popup state by clicking on this element.

The script also adds custom class names to this element for open and close state of popup - gh-members-popup-open and gh-members-popup-close, allowing devs to update its UI based on popup state.
