  Hi, this theme seems to support Gallery post format /chosen from previous themes and shows the gallery icon/, but when writing New post the Gallery format is not shown. Can it be fixed?

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

  I’ve checked into this and it seems to be a valid problem. The gallery post type seems to exist as if you create a post in a different theme (before switching to Highwind) then it will show up as expected based on the demo site. Yet if you activate the theme then create a new post it is not one of the available options – these are the only ones I see.

  also in Misty Lake and Silesia themes – all these themes support Gallery post format, but not showing it while making new post.

  Since you’ve already bumped your thread…

  There’s no mention on Highwind’s Showcase page that it supports the Gallery Post format or indeed any post formats although the Standard, Aside, Image, Quote, Video and Link post formats are available when writing a new post: http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/highwind/ This is a bit odd since Highwind is not mentioned on the list of themes supporting Post Formats http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/post-formats/

  However, all these themes display the Gallery feature, if not the Gallery Post Format (sometimes those two get confused).

  I’m sorry I don’t have the time right now to check the other themes you’ve mentioned.

  Hi there!

  Thanks for reporting this! I’ve submitted a request for our theme developers to take a look at Highwind and Silesia (as well as make sure Highwind has Post Formats listed as a feature).

  However, Misty Lake does not support the Gallery post format.

  I’ll let you know when I hear back.

  Thanks, Highwind shows when writing New post Standart, Aside, Image, Video, Quote, Link.

  Recently I had a similar issue with Edin and pointed it to the theme developer and he added Gallery :)

  @thomasguillot-then please update this Support doc to include Highwind http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/post-formats/ as well as the tags in the theme’s Showcase page. Thanks!

  @justjennifer – I’ve added Highwind to that support doc and requested that Post Formats be added to the theme’s list of features on its showcase page. Thanks for pointing that out!
