Overview

This guide outlines how to connect Mash with your Ghost website.

📌

Prerequisite Mash Account: To begin earning with Mash, you’ll need an account. If you don’t have one, please create an account here – it shouldn’t take more than 2 minutes!

By connecting Mash to your site, it allows you to get paid directly, and provides users access to their Mash wallet to easily contribute (with a click, or automatically).

The user wallet appears as a small icon on your site. The Wallet can display on all pages of your site, or you can set-it-up to show up only on specific pages that have items to monetize, such as Boosts, Page Revealers and more. You can adjust the placement and positioning directly in your Mash account.

Connect Mash to your Ghost Site

Add Mash in Your Site Admin Panel

1️⃣ Go to your to the Ghost Admin Panel to the Settings Section

The admin panel can be accessed at https://account.ghost.org/signin
Select the ⚙️ icon in the bottom left
Select the Code Injection Tab in the bottom-middle of the page

2️⃣ Copying the Code Snippet:

Open your Mash Account Setup Page (this link will open in a new window)
Select Ghost from the list.
Follow the setup guide for design and placement options.
On the last page, select Copy to Clipboard for the code snippet

✅

This code already has your unique identifier, the Earner ID, so that you are paid directly.

3️⃣ Pasting the Snippet in Header:

Go back to your Ghost Admin Panel Window on the Code Injection screen
Paste the copied code in the Site Header section
Click Save

4️⃣ Previewing Your Site

Preview your page and confirm that things are working
In the top left, click View Site

5️⃣ Confirming everything is setup.

If you set the Mash wallet to always show, it will appear on your site.
If you decided to set it to only show when there is an item to monetize, add something to start earning from, such as Boosts, and then take a look and both should be visible.
