Members.js

Drop-in script to make the bulk of members work on any theme

Basic Setup

1. Clone this repository:

[email protected]:TryGhost/members.js.git

2. Change into the new directory and install the dependencies:

cd members.js
yarn

Configure for local development

In your local Ghost setup:

• Add rish-upstream as remote on your local Ghost repo -

git remote add rish-upstream [email protected]:rishabhgrg/Ghost.git

• Fetch and checkout membersjs branch from the remote -

git fetch rish-upstream membersjs && git checkout membersjs

• Ensure your local Ghost is running

In this repo(Members.js):

• Run yarn build to create the minified bundle with your changes at umd/members.min.js

In your theme(Ex. Lyra):

• Copy members.min.js from above and paste it in your theme at assets/built/members.min.js
• Add below code in your theme's default.hbs just above {{{block "scripts"}}} to add and initialize members script

<script src="{{asset "built/members.min.js"}}"></script>
<script>
    // Pass Admin URL
    var data = {
        adminUrl: window.location.origin + "/ghost",
    };
    // Initialize members.js
    window.GhostMembers.initMembersJS(data);
</script>
