 * Will other post formats like video, quote and aside be added to canard?

 * Hi there,
 * This theme only has special styling for the Image, Gallery and Link post formats.
   There are no plans to add special styling for other post formats.
 * You might be able to do this yourself by creating a [child theme](https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/),
   though. First you’ll want to add a function in the child theme’s `functions.php`
   file to declare support for additional formats. And then you can add styling 
   for the formats you added in the child theme’s `style.css` file.
 * You can find a tutorial how to do this here:
 * [https://mageewp.com/create-post-format.html](https://mageewp.com/create-post-format.html)
 * Just to be clear – I’m suggesting this as an alternative that you can try yourself.
   I’m not able to help you create a child theme of this theme.

 * Hallo Kokkie,
 * Thanks for the swift response. I use the theme on WordPress.com for now. I don’t
   think I can create a child theme in the plan I have.
 * I guess I’ll have to decide if I want the benefits from canard or if I want to
   switch to another theme. I really like how the homepage looks now though.

 * On WordPress.com you’d need the Business Plan to use a child theme, yes.
 * But for help with the WordPress.com version of this theme, please contact WordPress.
   com support at [https://wordpress.com/help/contact](https://wordpress.com/help/contact)
 * This forum is only for the self-hosted version of this theme.
