Troubleshooting

Admin API not available

The Ghost Admin API is not available on the Ghost Starter pricing plan. You need to upgrade your Ghost account to a higher tier to enable this feature. View Ghost Pricing Plans

API connection fails

Verify your Admin API key and API URL are correct and copied completely from your Ghost integration settings. Ensure there are no extra spaces.

Articles not publishing

Check that your Ghost site is accessible and the Admin API is enabled. Verify your API credentials are still valid in Ghost settings.

Images not appearing

Ensure your Ghost site has proper permissions to fetch external images. Check that the image URLs are publicly accessible.

Invalid API key error

The API key may have been regenerated in Ghost. Go back to your Ghost integration settings and copy the current Admin API key, then update it in SEOBlogger.
