Image uploads are disabled when deployed to Heroku, since Heroku app filesystems aren’t meant for permanent storage. If this is a problem for you, you should look into other ways to host your site. Update: Initial support has landed for supplying custom config for external storage (e.g. Amazon S3) when including Ghost as an NPM module. See this discussion for an insight into what’s coming.
This repository is essentially a minimal web application that specifies Ghost as a dependency, and makes a deploy button available.
If you have problems using your instance of Ghost, you should check the official documentation or open an issue on the official issue tracker. If you discover an issue with the deployment process provided by this repository, then open an issue here.
