Hi Steve,
Me again. Just another quick question – is there a default contact page available for this theme? I didn’t see one but I may have just missed it. Thanks in advance.
Cheers
Oh, and also, is there a way to justify the text to the right for the footer text? The one found under Carrino: Theme Settings> General Settings?
Hi,
No, but you can easily build one with contact form 7 (which is supported)
You can change the text alignment in CSS. Do you have a footer menu too or just the footer text (E.g footer text to the right, no menu or footer text and menu to the right)?
Thanks – Steve
Hi, Thanks for this clean them you do such a great job.
I just want to know, how can I Eliminate or reduce render-blocking resources.
I use Autoptimize as you suggest in the documentation but my website score is 45/100 on the Google Pagespeed test.
any suggestions?
Thank you
Hi,
Thanks for your message.
WordPress generates .JS/CSS files and your theme or plugins might generate additional CSS/JS which can cause render blocking.
Things you can try include combining CSS/JS or delivering CSS/JS inline.
You can play with Autoptimize settings which has options for inline/combining CSS/JS .
You can never eliminate render blocking entirely but by combining or inline you can reduce it.
I hope this helps
Thanks – Steve
Hi Steve,
I’ve recently purchased your theme and so far it’s almost perfect but I just have a few things that I can’t quite figure out. First, I tried to make the hero image a slider but nothing happens, it remains static. I didn’t enable the static page because I’m not sure if I’d have to build it or how. Second, for some reason the posts showing on my page stop after 4 posts rather than fill the selected masonry column width (I chose 3, and only the first row shows three and and then the second row only shows 1 post). My URL is aishawilsonblog.com. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
Hi,
In order to use the Hero slider you need to first select “Slider” for the layout (which you have done). You then need to set the number of posts to more than 1. You can additionally set the number of slides to show (this turns it into a carousel if you set more than 1)
You can increase the number of posts per page in WP settings. Settings > Reading > Blog pages how at most
I hope this helps
Thanks – Steve
Thanks so much for the fast response! Just one more question about the Instagram feed. I tried using the one in your theme but it kept returning a 200 error, so I kept the old one I had, but I notice that it’s so much smaller than what’s shown in your demo (and I also loved the rounded corners of the pictures). Just wondering if the WP Insta plugin is compatible with business accounts? Or is it just that I couldn’t connect it properly? I know this is 3rd party so if it’s not supported by you I undestand. Thanks in advance!
Hi,
WP Instagram Plugin is now discontinued but Carrino also supports SmashBalloon Instagram feed with full theme styling https://wordpress.org/plugins/instagram-feed/
What you see in the demo is the SmashBalloon plugin.
I hope this helps

Hi I am having trouble with my theme making my home page look like your hero single http://www.3forty.media/carrino/
my blog is at blog.colormeworld.com
I would like page to look just like the example when I go here. http://www.3forty.media/carrino/
Not sure what I did incorrect, however I can’t figure this out.
Hi,
Make sure you have installed and activated the Hero Plugin (at the top of the admin panel you will see a prompt to download all Carrino plugins). Once installed the Hero image will display by default. YOu can then edit the settings in Appearance > Customize > 340 Media: Hero Settings
I hope this helps
Thanks – Steve
Yes I have already downloaded the Hero PlugIn and I have gone to the 340 Media: Hero Settings and selected Display Hero, Layout = slider and still nothing shows up. I am using the Carrino Theme (not the Carrino – Child) .... can’t figure out what I am doing wrong.
Hero only display posts with featured images. If the posts you set to display have no featured images nothing will display.
If that still does not resolve the issue you can email a temporary wp-admin login and I can take a look for you. 340@3forty.media
I hope this helps
Thanks – Steve
Hi,
What is the process to update the theme to the latest version?
I have looked at the documentation but I can’t seem to find it.
Thanks
Hi,
You can download the latest version from your downloads page.
Backup your current parent theme and all modifications. Then either upload via FTP overwriting the existing parent theme OR deactivate and uninstall the current parent theme then install and activate the new parent theme. Add your modifications back in.
I hope this helps
Thanks – Steve
Hi,
thanks for the theme!
Just a couple of questions:
- When I’m writing a post and I start a list, there is an option to introduce the start value for the list number. However, when you change the start value number, the circle that ones surrounding the number disappear.
- On the other hand, when I start a list with the dots, the list goes far to the left of the page and it doesn’t align with the rest of the text/paragraphs.
How can I fix these?
Thanks!
Hi,
Are you referring to the front-end or back-end (Gutenberg) editor?
What version of WP are you using?
Thanks – Steve
Also can you share a link so I can take a look?
Hi Steve. The web is not published yet, can I send you the information by email? What’s your email? Thanks
Yes of course. 340@3forty.media
I’ve replied to your email. Thanks – Steve
Hi Steve, can you please double check? I haven’t received in my inbox. Thanks!
Check you spam folder. It was definitely sent.
Hi, What are the differences between Ruki theme & carrino theme ? what you suggest for me. Thank you
Hi,
Thanks for your message.
Other than the obvious styling differences;
1. Ruki features “In Loop” sidebars/widget areas
2. Ruki has additional header layouts
3. Ruki supports up to 4 columns (Carrino maximum 3)
4. Ruki supports video embeds in post loops and blocks (Video format)
5. Ruki plugins have a few more database query settings
Carrino is a little lighter with less options, both are optimized for Gutenberg.
I hope this helps.
Thanks – Steve
thanks Steve, that’s helps a lot

Hi Steve,
I have a few questions I would like answered before buying your theme, which I really like.
I am new to the “blog world” so forgive me in advance if my questions seem odd.
Is it possible to change the size of the blocks and of the image displayed? I would like my hero to be the grid (3 posts) with the 3 latest posts but with way smaller image and with a small extract of the article.
Under that I would like a block with 3 columns of 4 articles, like you have at the bottom of your demos, but with “Featured articles”, “Most read” and “Editor’s pick”.
And then all the articles with a small extract one under another.
Is this possible with your theme and with my very limited coding skills?
Thank you very much in advance.
Hi,
Thanks for your message.
You would not be able to achieve what you without significant modifications to the plugins. Hero has two styles neither of these styles give you the layout you want and featured posts only support grid layout.
Some users have used Elementor or similar page builder plugins to achieve more complex layouts but I don’t offer any support for page builders. Here is an example of Carrino theme and Elementor page builder layout https://kitchenswagger.com/
I hope this helps
Thanks – Steve
Hi,
Thank you for your answer, I understand.
I really like the Demo 2. Is it just possible to decrease the size of the images and add an extract of the article?
Hi,
What images/articles are you referring to?
Thanks – Steve
The ones in the hero 
Yes, that’s possible with some modifications to both the plugin files and CSS. However, If you have limited coding experience then I would say No.
I hope this helps
Thanks – Steve
Hi there! Great theme!
I am using the Polylang plugin to offer a German and an English version of my site. Now I have a problem translating the title of the Featured posts on the homepage into two different languages since it is a user-textbox. I want to show a German title on the German page and an English title on the English page. Is this possible? How?
Hi,
You will need to contact the plugin developer or you can try this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/add-polylang-support-for-customizer/
WPML plugin allows the translation of customizer text strings so I would assume Polylang does too?
Thanks – Steve
Can I just say: You are fantastic! The plugin works! The theme is great! Fabulous work!
THANK YOU!
Your welcome 
1. when display in the post list (archive) I want to know how to change ‘Published Date’ to’Last Modified Date’
2. I want to know how to change ‘Published Date’ to’Last Modified Date’ in a single post.
In the GeneratepPress theme, it was possible with a hook. I’m wondering how to do it in Carrino.
I think that other people will also wonder about it.
Hi,
If you simply want to replace published date with modified date you can replace his line in template-parts/meta-after-title.php
Line 60:
<time datetime="<?php echo get_the_date( 'Y-m-d' ) ?>"><?php echo get_the_date( ) ?></time>
Change to this:
<time datetime="<?php echo get_the_date( 'Y-m-d' ) ?>"><?php echo get_the_modified_date() ?></time>
I hope this helps
Thanks – Steve
Hey steave, last week you said that you are releasing an update that fixes the editor styling issues…so now is it right time for me to buy this wonderful theme?
Yes, I updated Carrino theme yesterday. Now has improved WordPress 5.7.2 compatibility
Thanks – Steve
Hello! I just purchased your amazing theme but realized I ran into one technical issue… I did not notice it was a wordpress theme… Is there a possibility you have a source code with pure html css and javascript files to apply them on my site built from scratch?
Hi,
There is not a HTML version.
Thanks – Steve
Thanks for your reply, Steve!
It’s such a shame… I really liked the design. Do you think a refund would be possible in such case?
Image captions do not appear on mobile. How can we show captions for a post’s image?
You need to update to the latest version of the theme which shows captions for all media on all devices.
Thanks – Steve
Hello I have a problem with the integration of all my future yputubes videos with the theme. Let me explain I have always integrated my videos as in default mode but with the carrrino theme on mobile the player is no longer suitable. How to avoid having to touch up more than 5000 articles by hand.
Hi,
Can you share a link so I can take a look for you?
Thanks – Steve
Hey …look here test post https://actusexo.fr/featured-2/
Hi,
It looks like the video is hard coded (the markup is coded into the content rather than using the embed feature.). Carrino is a Gutenberg theme but does support classic editor embeds but because the video is hard coded and not embedded with one of the embed features the responsive wrapper function will not run. You need to use the embed feature to generate the proper markup to display responsive videos.
Try bulk updating your posts to trigger the built in theme wrapper function. Here’s a good guide https://mekshq.com/bulk-update-posts-wordpress/
Finally, if you are not already using Gutenberg you can enable it which may also convert your video embeds to a Gutenberg block.
I hope this helps
Thanks – Steve
Hello thank you for your theme but I would like to know how not to display the featured image in a post so that I only have the title in text
Hi,
In the new/edit post screen. Bottom of right hand column (Document). Check “Disable featured image/media”
Thanks – Steve
I Steve, I’m afraid but the code doesn’t work yet with the grid mode…
Sorry, try this;
.cols-1 .flex-box, cols-2 .flex-box { width: calc(100% / 3 – 30px); flex-grow: 0; } Thanks – Steve
In addition, I have another problem to fix in the home page. It shows the last row with only one post, not 3…
https://www.entredones.com/blog/You have to go to the next page to see the other post but there is two empty spaces in the first one…
Any other idea to fix this?
Thanks a lot for your time. Regards, Irene
I see space at the bottom now that the posts no longer fill the space (isn’t this what you wanted?)
It sounds like you might need to change the number of posts per page to be divisible by three so that you do not have empty cells. (unless you do not have enough posts to fill all the spaces)
Settings > Reading > Blog pages show at most. Change to a number divisible by three (E.g. 12)
Thanks – Steve
I Steve, I’m afraid but the settings adjustements that you show are already done (actually are 9) but the problem is still happening. It’s more, if you go to page 2, the two post width are the whole page, not only 2 columns…
Any other solution?
Thanks in advance. Regards, Irene
Change the CSS to this (missing dot from cols-2 class)
.cols-1 .flex-box, .cols-2 .flex-box {
width: calc(100% / 3 – 30px);
flex-grow: 0;
}
Thanks – Steve
Hi Steve, I tried your code but still doesn’t work…
Please, look at this url: https://www.entredones.com/blog/
The last post from page 1 is the whole with, not only one colum. Other solution?
Thanks in advance. Irene
You will need to add more specificity;
.flex-grid.cols-1 .flex-box, .cols-2 .flex-box {
width: calc(100% / 3 – 30px);
flex-grow: 0;
}
Thanks – Steve
Hi Steve, This new code can not fix the problem. Need some solution, please…
I have other question. How can I change the color of the “search button”? (only search button not the whole menu)
Thanks for your attention. Irene
You have ASCii characters in your code;
This is what your code looks like;
.flex-grid.cols-1 .flex-box, .cols-2 .flex-box {
width: calc(100% / 3 – 30px);
flex-grow: 0;
}
This is what it shoud look like;
.flex-grid.cols-1 .flex-box, .cols-2 .flex-box {
width: calc(100% / 3 - 30px);
flex-grow: 0;
}
Appearance > Customize > Carrino: Color Settings
Header Toggle Icon Background Color and Header Toggle Icon Color

Hi Steve! Now it seem that it works. Thanks a lot! But the only thing is that the first page show 10 post when I configure only to show 9…
That’s because one of the posts is sticky, remove the sticky status.
Thanks a lot Steve. It works! You are a crack head of ideas!!! 
Hey…I was planning to purchase this theme, but in description mentioned that is supports wordpress 5.6.X and so on….my wordpress recently updated to 5.7.2…so will this theme work or i have to wait till theme update?
Hi,
Carrino works with the latest version of WordPress 5.7.2 but some of the Gutenberg editor styling does not match (works in the front end but has styling inconsistencies in the editor). I am releasing an update later this month that fixes the editor styling issues.
I hope this helps
Thanks Steve
Okay then it’s good to purchase it later after update… waiting for update now
can i get a mail when you update…? so i can purchase as soon as possible…
If you purchase the theme you will receive an email when the theme is updated so you can download the latest version. Otherwise you will just need to keep checking in for the latest update.
Thanks – Steve

Cannot install any ThreeForty plugins as it says:
Downloading installation package from https://3forty.media/plugins/threeforty-hero.zip…

Hi,
The plugin URL’s have changed. You need to download the latest version of the theme from your downloads page. That will contain the new URL’s
Thanks – Steve
Thank you, that solved the issue.
