App Ideas

A place to collect ideas for apps and specifically things that the apps need to be able to do.

The idea here is to list a high level goal, and then document what API/GDT features are needed to achieve it.

If you have an idea, please add it to the list no need to break it down into features!

• Embed analytics code into every page
  • Be able to filter ghost.head or ghost.foot (need renaming)
• Embed comments into posts / pages
  • Add configuration settings to the admin
  • Have access to a {{comments}} helper
• Modify RSS feeds
  • Be able to filter rss.feed and rss.item
• Way to supply additional headers
  • Add X-Content-Duration for .ogg files for example. (see http://expressjs.com/3x/api.html#res.set)
• Receive data via webhook to add new posts
  • Integration into IFTTT (compare https://ifttt.com/wordpress)
• Github project daily/weekly/release summary post
  • Use Github Webhooks (git-at-me) to compile a summary of commits/PR/issues for a specified time range
• Way to specify a path for receiving REST data
  • Have a server POST data to a ghost path that the app can then store and use (like usage statistics every 2 hours from a server)
• Hook into the login process to add 2FA
  • https://ghost.org/forum/plugins/877-two-factor-auth/
• Hook into existing routes
