Editor’s Choice is a curated block on the Crimson homepage that highlights a small set of hand-picked posts. It’s designed to spotlight your best or most important content in a compact “featured picks” layout.
A key visual detail: this section always uses a dark background, regardless of:
Light/Dark mode
Theme color mode settings
The dark mode toggle button
So it remains visually consistent as a “special” editorial area.
Displays up to 4 posts.
A post will show in Editor’s Choice only if it has the internal tag: #editors-choice
Posts can be Featured or Latest — that doesn’t matter here.
The only requirement is having the internal tag #editors-choice.
Crimson will pick the latest 4 posts (newest first) that have #editors-choice.
✅ If there is at least 1 post tagged #editors-choice, the section is rendered.
❌ If there are 0 posts tagged #editors-choice, the entire Editor’s Choice section is hidden (it will not render at all).
This keeps the homepage clean — you won’t see an empty block.
Open the post in Ghost Admin
Click Post settings (sidebar)
Under Tags, add: #editors-choice
Click Update / Publish
That post is now eligible to show inside the Editor’s Choice section.
Because the section only shows the latest 4 matching posts, you can “rotate” your picks by adding/removing #editors-choice from posts over time.
