About Especio | Personal Gutenberg Food Blog WordPress Theme 1.0
Especio is a WordPress theme for personal food blogs, designed around the Gutenberg block editor. It was sold on ThemeForest and is filed in the store under creative, blog, multipurpose and food and restaurants categories.
The listing says little about layouts, demos or recipe features, so check the documentation in the package for what is included. The file on record is version 1.0, from February 2020. Test it with your current WordPress and PHP versions on a staging site before it goes on a live blog.
Key features
- Made for food blogging
- Aimed at personal blogs about food, per its name and categories.
- Gutenberg-based
- Built for WordPress's block editor, so posts are written with blocks.
- Personal blog focus
- Described as a personal blog theme rather than a magazine layout.
- Multipurpose categories
- Also filed under creative and business categories.
Is it right for you?
A good fit for
- Personal food bloggers who write in the block editor
- Home cooks sharing recipes and photos on a small site
Look elsewhere if
- Restaurants needing menus and bookings, which the listing doesn't mention
- Sites that depend on a page builder other than Gutenberg
How to install Especio | Personal Gutenberg Food Blog WordPress Theme 1.0
- 1
Download the file

- 2
Find the installable theme zip

- 3

- 4
Install the recommended plugins

Notes for this product
- The listing doesn't state whether recipe cards or a demo import are included. Check the documentation in the package.
Getting started: using Especio | Personal Gutenberg Food Blog WordPress Theme 1.0
- Activate the theme on a staging site. Activate Especio and install any plugins its notice asks for.
- Read the documentation. Check what demo content and blog layouts the package provides.
- Set your menus and front page. Create a menu and choose whether the home page shows your latest posts.
- Publish a test post with blocks. Write a post with images and headings to see how the theme styles the blocks.
Common problems and fixes
“The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”
- Why it happens
- The full download package was uploaded instead of the theme zip inside it.
- How to fix it
- Unzip the package and upload the zip that contains style.css at its top level.
“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading
- Why it happens
- The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
- How to fix it
- Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/themes with your host's file manager or SFTP.
Demo import stops part-way or times out
- Why it happens
- The server hits its execution-time or memory limit during the import.
- How to fix it
- Raise max_execution_time and memory_limit with your host, then re-run the importer; importing content, widgets and settings separately also helps.
Pages look broken right after activating
- Why it happens
- The theme's required plugins (page builder, theme core plugin) aren't installed yet.
- How to fix it
- Install and activate everything in the theme's required-plugins notice, then reload.
