>Ghost is indeed a great platform and i consider it "Wordpress with superpowers".

I am wondering about this. I tried Ghost a few months ago, when digitial ocean was offering a free couple months if you tried it. I used it for a little bit, and found it much, much worse than wordpress for even simple blogging. I really like the ability to change things around easily if I don't like them.

What did I miss?

That it is still an alpha version you're using?

On the Kickstarter page [1] it's stated that it will be customizable and will support plugins. So give it some time I'd say.

Okay so the functionality definitely isn't there yet. Just planned. That definitely doesn't qualify it as "wordpress with superpowers." It's just a blogging platform with aspirations at this point.
