I see what you mean and I’ll have to see what this module from Jetpack needs from the theme to work properly. But I don’t really see it as an issue, just disable that module and let the theme handle your mobile view instead of letting Jetpack do it.

I switched Jetpack mobile theme for now. Though Google page speed on mobile dropped from 64 to 59.
Just wanted to let you know that support for the mobile theme from Jetpack cannot be added. It can only display one widget area so it cannot work with the theme’s front page which has 3 widget areas in total.

OK, I guess I will have to live with it. But please consider adding image.php into the next release – it is extremely important for most bloggers.
Is there anything specific that you’d need for the image template? Like a list of features or something?

Well, usually there’s an image title, date and links to all dimensions (with numerically specified dimensions shown) that the image is available at (for me only the originally uploaded image dimensions are fine without any thumbnails). When clicked it opens the image itself without anything in specified dimensions (like it opens an image in FlyMag now).
Under the image its description and on a separate line tags are usually shown. I separate tags with | in the media uploader and that is how they are shown in Jetpack galleries. So if the template doesn’t break this it’s great. There probably must be a link to the post where the image first appears. Oh, and if the page shows the image’s meta that’d be awesome.
There was a post on such pages here – http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/advanced-attachment-page/. My previous theme GeneratePress had the .php just fine out of the box.
Thank you for the good work and great theme!

Oh, and as for the mobile theme. It is fine now with Jetpack mobile theme switched off and the site shown in full on the phone (it’s responsive and OK). But if I could probably have such an option in widget customization I’d switch the carousel off for mobile phones.

One more thing as a side note for improvement. On the homepage widgets displaying posts by category have titles of that category. But the titles are not clickable. Typically category widget titles should be clickable to let people go to the archives of that category without the need to look for the menu.
What you have: posts in these widgets show category in their meta, which is rather unnecessary, since all posts within one widget (if you specify a particular category) belong to that category, so it is not necessary to include it on the frontpage.
Sorry for so many notes, just some thoughts that you might find useful or potential.
That’s exactly the thing – if you specify a particular category. You might not specify one. You might specify none or two, three etc.
At the moment only the Type C widget does this. I see you have one on your front page, not sure if you noticed but the titles link to the cats.

Titles of cats link to cats, I know. I’d rather not have cats names in posts meta on homepage since all my widgets but one are single-category. It is rather strange that there’s doubling the category on a single category widget, but in the widget where two categories are chosen these cats are not shown under each post.
Guess it is all complicated and there will always be someone who feels differently. This is not a big deal at all. Never mind. ))) I really like your theme – this is the first that lets people actually easily get a magazine-style homepage without additional plugins, shortcodes and coding!
