Pagespeed

We know pagespeed is critical for users and search engines, which is why we're always updating Cravings Pro to be as fast as possible.

We've fine-tuned the theme as much as we can, and you'll want to use WP Rocket and the Feast Plugin to squeeze as much juice as possible from your setup.

What size should my logo be?

We recommend a header size of 430 × 110 pixels and you can upload your logo in the Customizer. You'll have the option to crop if you need to. Or, if you don’t have a logo, you can simply type in your blog name and it will be styled to match the rest of your typography.

Take note: You'll need to upload a logo sized at 430 x 110, but it will only appear as 215 x 55. This is because retina screens need a double resolution to appear clear. While this logo area may appear small to some, it has been optimized for placement on all screen sizes, including mobile devices.

How big should my post images be?

How does the "Read More" button work?

If you are using excerpts on the archive pages, blog page, or in the Featured Posts widget, a "Read More" button will automatically appear for you. You can also use the MORE tag to insert the button when displaying full content.

Update: We no longer recommend or support using the read more tag.

I'm glad you asked! Sure, you need a plugin that will make your recipes look great and get attention from Google, but we think you also need a simple, streamlined solution.

We recommend WP Recipe Maker! Check it out and thank us later!

What if I have more questions? How can I get support?

We have a dedicated support team to help you get your theme set up. Check out our helpful tutorials or submit a support ticket if you need additional assistance.

Can you install and customize it for me?
