I am a developer that was looking for a video to share with my newbie, non-techie clients to introduce them to adding their own content. Thank you for clear, concise explanation without all the gratuitous fluff found in other videos. I like that you touch on many of the settings at a basic level, giving an excellent overview of the features without getting bogged down in a deep in this video. I also like how you stay on most common options available in the core WP. The block editors' many options can easily overwhelm a beginner, making a clear tutorial that much more important. Thank you.

I have used WP Classic Editor about x1 pm for 12 years. So I am no expert but old ways are embedded. Now I MUST make the change. So thanks for making it understandable. The jump from a word processing way of doing content to what must be a graphic design approach is quite a leap. But this has helped

Exploring the Wordpress Block editor is like exploring a glacier on Mars that's spreading down Jabba the Hut's arse. With killer bees. I bet the Wordpress team's next idea is to build mazes in front of every toilet door. In. The. World. How does one add space between paragraphs that doesn't involve a new tool menu/ theme/ plug in or ransome to get the old Classic editor back? Back in the day you just pressed one single button: Return. Doing that now means you've just added a new block.

The block usually leaves a space, is it no showing up for you? There's always Shift+Enter twice maybe? But yeah, it is 100% more complex than before. I lie it - but I'm a web designer and it suits me. Have you considered installing the classic editor plugin if you prefer it?

@@WadeMcMaster Thx mate. The block leaves a space but when you want more than one is when the dark forces of the wordpress matrix and their denizens of pure digital fuckery come into play. I have considered getting Classic back but don't want to pay the fee and aggrandise their wank-cabal. From an ethical viewpoint I'd rather murder my family.

For writers of short story fiction that includes dialogue, the spacing of the blocks is way too wide. Each speaker needs to start a new paragraph, and if they utter short one-line sentences, it looks really bad on the page. Is there any way around this?
@WadeMcMaster
5 жыл бұрын
Hi Larry, you could make use of the classic block for those specific pieces of dialogue? Pop it all into the one block. Otherwise you'd need to see if your theme has any line-height settings (or code them in CSS).

It might be in fullscreen mode. I know they just rolled out an update which turns that on by default, which removes the sidebar. If you hit the 3 vertical dots at the top right of the screen and unticking it. There's some info here: kinsta.com/blog/wordpress-5-4/#fullscreen-mode I hope that's it and I hope it helps!

@WadeMcMaster

Hi, I haven't tried the block editor on WP.com, but the theme would dictate a lot of the style and keep if pretty confined. I'd be looking at something like Leadpages (although I'm not sur eho wit would like up to wp.com) or, if you're using wp.org, the Divi Theme and Builder. I use the Divi Theme myself, I have a series of videos on it here if you'd like to take a look: kzitem.info/door/PLsaZXe5Zf2eFg-p1XXTV5mQYOwa3LAYZx The only free option I think would be to test out a bunch of free themes and find one that has a suitable landing page template you can alter. I hope that all helps!
