From b9d85f1f39fa9156bcfcc203bfef2f75d1cc57d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bastien <57838962+bst1n@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Sun, 24 May 2026 17:43:40 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Add default error.hbs and error-404.hbs templates MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Source currently doesn't ship any error templates, so Ghost falls back to an unbranded default. This adds two minimal, on-brand error pages following the same convention as Casper: - error.hbs (standalone, lightweight): handles all non-404 errors (500, etc.). No partials or API calls so it stays renderable when something on the server is degraded. - error-404.hbs (extends default.hbs): keeps the visitor inside the theme chrome and suggests 3 recent posts to help them re-engage. Both templates use only existing translation keys ('Go to the front page →', 'Recent posts', 'Theme errors'), so no locale changes are required. --- error-404.hbs | 42 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ error.hbs | 66 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 108 insertions(+) create mode 100644 error-404.hbs create mode 100644 error.hbs diff --git a/error-404.hbs b/error-404.hbs new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d5bc5bf0 --- /dev/null +++ b/error-404.hbs @@ -0,0 +1,42 @@ +{{!< default}} + +{{!-- + 404 page.
