  Hi, this theme seems to support Gallery post format, but when writing a New post the Gallery format is not shown in the editor /classic and BBB/. Can it be fixed?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Why do you think Fanwood Light supports a Gallery format?

  Maybe because the theme description https://wordpress.com/themes/fanwood-light/ says it supports Post Formats, and indeed in the Demo https://fanwoodlightdemo.wordpress.com/ it does tag each post with a format, including Gallery, but in the Classic Post Editor’s Post Format Module, everything except Gallery appears.

  However, Fanwood Light doesn’t even appear in the list of themes that support Post Formats: https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/post-formats/

  Confusing?

  The list of themes, supporting posts formats and the descriptions of each theme are not always well made and updated.
  Highwind, Edin, Sequential and several other themes also didn’t show Gallery post format, while writing new post until I pointed the issue here in the forum. Now they support :) .
  The same situation is with Misty Lake, Silesia and 1-2 other older themes. :(

  @metal666blade and @justjennifer, many thanks for bringing this to our attention. I will chat with our developers after the weekend and we will get this straightened out. I can’t say which way things will go. It could be that Gallery will be added to Fanwood Lite, and it could be that the Demo Site will simply be updated so it doesn’t reflect Gallery formats in the posts.

  @metal666blade, I checked with the developers and Fanwood Light does not support the Gallery Post Format. The post with the Gallery Format on the Fanwood Light demo site has been corrected.

  Sorry for the confusion, and many thanks for bringing this to our attention.

  In Live preview all Gallery posts have the gallery icon.
  Thank you.

  @metal666blade, after chatting again with the developers, we are going to add support for Gallery Post Format to Fanwood Light. It will be soon, but I cannot say exactly when.

  You are welcome, and from what I can tell, the addition of Gallery Format is now active.
