@sumudu Yes, you can add a Ghost RSS feed to Micro.blog under Account → Edit Feeds. Ghost doesn't have API support for posting, though, so you can't post from the Micro.blog apps.

@sumudu Your feed URL is wrong. That URL just goes to your web site home page. Copy/paste the "Subscribe" link from your site into Account → Edit Feeds and it should work.

@sumudu Ah. Replace "feed" with "http" there so that it's a normal URL… We'll have to make this smarter in the future.

@sumudu Add a trailing slash to the URL like /rss/. The redirect doesn't appear to be working. Sorry about all the trouble! (I'm working on better error reporting.)

@manton Is this still the case? Where Ghost blog does not allow you to post from Micro.blog.

@Thought Yes, Ghost created their own API instead of using a standard like Micropub, so there's no way for Micro.blog to post to it. You can still use Ghost with Micro.blog but you'll have to post via Ghost itself.
