Nice – How do you think this would work out with WooCommerce on a self-hosted site?

What is the best template for food blogging?
LikeLiked by 3 people
We have some themes picked out that we feel would be well-suited to food blogging:
Free: https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/food/?sort=free
Premium: https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/food/?sort=premium
However, I think any theme that you like, and that displays photographs nicely would be suitable!

Hi! I earlier struggle a bit with social media icons menu. But, by the time, any help could come, I managed to install them on one of the sites which proudly has this theme, now. Thanks for this wonderful work.

I’m completely new to website design and WP. I’m a real estate broker/investor looking to create a website. How do think Lodestar would be for my business. I was looking at Edin but this really caught my eye. Thanks for advice can you provide.

I think Lodestar would make a fantastic theme for a business, but I have to admit, I’m a bit biased 😉
Edin’s also a really sharp theme – there are quite a few themes on WordPress.com targeted to business sites:
Free: https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/business/?sort=free
Premium: https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/business/?sort=premium
I’d recommend trying a couple out to see what fits right for you. If you run into any problems or have questions, you can always reach out to us at: https://wordpress.com/help/contact/ 🙂

Lodestar’s social links menu has an impressive number of sites and I hope that support will be extended to our other business themes as well. Including SoundCloud and Snapchat in those links would be perfect. Well done!

Great job with a new short of different tweak. I’ve been looking for a theme that will display EVERY picture in full size, all across the screen, the way my current theme will display each “header image” for each individual post.
Could this be the theme I’m looking for?!!!!
I am not sure I am expressing myself clearly but would love to hear back if you think this is what I have been searching for all this time :-).

Does this theme allow normal paragraphing with indented first line and no blank line between paragraphs unless wanted?

That’s a change you could make with Custom CSS, available with the Premium or Business plans.
