Libretto no longer maintained? Anyone planning to switch?

  • So, if you visit the www.ads-software.com page for the Libretto theme, it says “This theme hasn’t been updated in over 2 years. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.” In fact, it’s coming up on 3 years this spring.

    I love Libretto, but I hear it’s not a great idea to use such an out-of-date theme, and was wondering if anyone was planning to switch, and if so, what they were thinking of using? I don’t suppose there’s any chance of getting WordPress to start maintaining this one again………

    I did come across Libre 2, which isn’t bad, but I really like the pure one-column nature of Libretto.

    Any advice or recommended alternative themes (that aren’t likely to be abandoned like this one)?

    Since you love that theme so much I have good news! We have an updated version of it over at WordPress.com where you can download and install it on your site.

    The last update was in May 2020. You can download it here:
