Theme Highlights

True Multilingual Support

Crimson is built as a multilingual-first Ghost theme, making it ideal for publishing content in multiple languages. It supports clear language separation and structured navigation, which is especially important for local and regional news websites.

Dropdown Navigation (Primary & Secondary Menus)

Both Primary and Secondary navigation menus support dropdowns, allowing you to organize navigation links in a structured and intuitive way.

Footer Navigation with Dropdown Support

The footer navigation also supports dropdown menus, making it easy to group links such as categories, legal pages, resources, or regional sections.

No-Code Navigation Management

All navigation menus can be managed directly from Ghost Admin. You can add, remove, reorder, or restructure menus without touching a single line of code.
