I ran across something I wanted to share about using iA Writer's built-in Ghost publishing.

I found out that while Writer's publishing to Ghost is pretty bare bones it does support setting the title of the post multiple ways:

  1. The title can be set by using a "title" property in the file's front matter if you use it.

I was hoping that it would use a level one heading (i.e. #) as an option as well but it doesn't appear that works.
