# Ghost CMS
## Add Humblytics Analytics to Ghost CMS
### 1 · Sign up (or log in)
Visit humblytics.com → Start Free Trial. Finish signup—or log in to your existing workspace.
### 2 · Add your website in Humblytics
In the sidebar, click **Add Website**.
* **Domain** – enter `your-domain.com` (omit `https://` and `www`)
* **Site Name** – internal label (e.g. `Blog-Prod`)
Copy the snippet from **Install Tracking Code**:
html
```html
```
Keep this tab open—we'll return and click **Verify Website** once the tag is live.
### 3 · Add the script to your Ghost site
#### Option 1: Code Injection (recommended)
**Best for:** Managed Ghost(Pro) or self-hosted Ghost without custom theme development
1. Go to your **Ghost Admin Dashboard**
2. In the sidebar, click **Settings → Code Injection**
3. Under **Site Header**, paste your Humblytics snippet:
html
```html
```
4. Click **Save**
Ghost will automatically inject this into the `` of every page.
#### Option 2: Theme Files
**Best for:** Custom themes or multiple environments (staging/production with different tracking IDs)
1. Download your active theme:
* Go to **Settings → Design**
* Click the **⋮** menu next to your active theme
* Select **Download**
2. Extract the theme and open `default.hbs` (or your theme's main layout file)
3. Locate the closing `` tag and paste your script just above it:
html
```html
```
4. Zip the modified theme and re-upload:
* Go to **Settings → Design**
* Click **Upload theme**
* Select your modified theme zip file
**Note**: Replace `YOUR_ID_HERE` with your actual project ID from Humblytics.
### 4 · Verify installation
1. Return to Humblytics and click **Verify Website**
2. Open your live Ghost site in a private/incognito window and refresh once
3. Within \~30 seconds you should see a green **Verified** badge and live visitor count
**If verification fails, check:**
* Script ID matches your project in Humblytics
* You clicked **Save** in Code Injection (or uploaded the modified theme)
* You're testing on the correct domain (not localhost)
* No browser extensions or ad-blockers are interfering
### 5 · Explore & optimize
* **Dashboard** – view traffic, top posts, and referrers
* **Heatmaps** – auto-generated from real user interactions
* **Experiments** – run A/B tests on your Ghost pages (Experiments → New Test)
