This is exactly what I needed, easy and painless! Did Hostinger increase their pricing? The screenshots show a whole different story here, maybe they became too popular and did what most companies do to make themselves even richer.

Hey Maryloo, glad you liked it! My guess is that you haven't unziped the theme's file. Many themes need to be extracted to reveal all their files, and usually inside those files there's the right main theme zip file and child theme zip file.

Download the theme's file, right-click on it and click on "Extract here". If you don't see that option, you can use WinRAR or 7-Zip to extract them. Once you've extracted the file, check for newspaper.zip or newspaper-theme.zip file and upload that one to WordPress.

Let me know how it went!

I didn't like any of the free themes in wordpress and purchased a theme called newspaper from themeforest but whenever I try to upload it says that I am uploading the wrong file. What am I doing wrong here?

Hey, sorry for my delayed reply. You can use a plugin for that part, which is a great way not only to display your recipes through a modern and/or minimal design but also to optimize them for search engines (as they automatically add the right schema markup).

To me personally, WP Recipe Maker is the best choice overall and the one I’m always choosing for my clients. But there are many more in the WordPress Plugin Directory.

To install a plugin, from your WordPress Dashboard go to Plugins -> Add New and search for “recipe” or for a specific plugin. Then simply click on “Install“, wait a bit, and click on “Activate“. You should then find its Settings page somewhere on the left sidebar.

Let me know how it went! 🙂

I have successfully created my blog and chosen a template, how can I make my recipes look more stunning with ingredients and options to print or save each recipe? Sorry if I ask too much I know that may be way more technical for older people like myself (and if it is I am okay paying for that).
