Core Nio Features

Here's what Nio offers to help you publish effectively:

1. Clean Design & Easy Customization

• Flexible Color Schemes: Choose from Light, Dark, or an automatic System detection to match your visitor's preference. You can also enable an optional visitor theme switcher.

• Dual Logo Support: Ensure your brand looks sharp in any mode. Upload separate logo versions for light and dark backgrounds.
• Font Customization: Nio works seamlessly with Ghost's native font system. You can also choose from Nio’s own selection of clean heading and body fonts for optimal readability.

2. Enhanced Content Presentation

• Versatile Post Layouts: Select from 4 distinct post layouts (e.g., Text First, Image Left, Image Right, Full-Width Image) to best showcase each article and its visuals.

• Smart & Clear Navigation: Nio features a clean primary header navigation that automatically tucks extra menu items into a "More" dropdown on smaller screens. A multi-column footer navigation allows for comprehensive site links.
• Smooth Post Loading: Keep readers engaged with a "Load More" button that reveals subsequent posts without full page reloads, creating a near-infinite scroll experience.
• Reader-Friendly Details: Enhance the reading experience with a subtle reading progress scroll indicator, automatic related post suggestions to encourage discovery, and built-in syntax highlighting for clear presentation of code snippets.

3. Hero Section

• Customizable Homepage Intro: Create a standout first impression with Nio's Hero section, appearing when you configure a Hero title in settings.
• Flexible Content Options: Add a compelling title with HTML styling support, craft an engaging description paragraph, and include a call-to-action button or custom HTML content.
