Gutenberg

Description

“Gutenberg” is a codename for a whole new paradigm in WordPress site building and publishing, that aims to revolutionize the entire publishing experience as much as Gutenberg did the printed word. Right now, the project is in the first phase of a four-phase process that will touch every piece of WordPress — Editing, Customization, Collaboration, and Multilingual — and is focused on a new editing experience, the block editor.

The block editor introduces a modular approach to pages and posts: each piece of content in the editor, from a paragraph to an image gallery to a headline, is its own block. And just like physical blocks, WordPress blocks can added, arranged, and rearranged, allowing WordPress users to create media-rich pages in a visually intuitive way — and without work-arounds like shortcodes or custom HTML.

The block editor first became available in December 2018, and we’re still hard at work refining the experience, creating more and better blocks, and laying the groundwork for the next three phases of work. The Gutenberg plugin gives you the latest version of the block editor so you can join us in testing bleeding-edge features, start playing with blocks, and maybe get inspired to build your own.

FAQ

How can I send feedback or get help with a bug?

We’d love to hear your bug reports, feature suggestions and any other feedback! Please head over to the GitHub issues page to search for existing issues or open a new one.

HTMLとか書けない初心者のためのツールなのでしょうかね? 練習をしてもなれないし、細かいところに手が届かないし、タグの呼び出しが不便すぎる(時間がかかりすぎる) 考えた人の思考がわからない Gutenbergを廃止にして下さい

Really dislike the Gutenberg editor- it's so much work even to add a heading vs. text- the interface is not intuitive, and my clients don't understand working in it. Anywhere that clients will be writing articles, we install the classic editor plugin. The only thing I like is the ability to add a button within an article. The rest of it is a real bummer. I feel like I've really given it some time as I know I can be resistant to change, but it's been years and I still hate working with it.

Gutenberg is made with a long term vision of replacing those bloatware page builder plugins. I aboslutely like Gutenberg plugin! It produces very clean code and highly minimize the load in the website. That also leads to increase in pagespeed. Lots of one star for this plugin can mean people just want everything in snip no matters the site turns to bloatware by pagebuilder plugins. On my side, I always avoided pagebuilder plugins like elementor and use theme such as Rehub that focus on building pages with Gutenberg. Some folks might feel lazy spending time to build up the page using Gutenberg. That's because it may take more time as compaired to others. But for me, I like spending time building WordPress sites and I appreciate WordPress team for developing Gutenberg for us.

Gutenberg has some good approaches but unfortunately it usually gets in the way rather than helping you. Examples: If HTML is inserted as html block, it happens often enough that gutenberg tries to display the block not as html but as something else and asks if it should fix the block... it could just leave the block as html block. But really annoying is the habit of embedding absolutely every link. which unworldly person came up with that? since in worpress standard gutenberg per page is not activatable or deactivatable you have to install additional plugins just to be able to insert legal text. The maintenance and creation of pages with gutenberg has become simply impossible in the default.

I completely understand the great amount of one-star reviews. After all, people are evaluating what they have at their disposal and this review system wasn't made to evaluate a promise, after all. Fair enough. But this plugin is, by definition, the fickle expression of a long-term vision. A moving target, developed at a fast pace, purposefully in the open. So, it is actually expected that things will break if you use it. They could keep it only on GitHub to get rid of the bad reviews. But they choose not to, so more people could freely express their opinions, experiences, concerns and their constructive criticism, if they choose to be of help. Changing the way content is created on the most used CMS of the planet is no easy feat. The Gutenberg team are capable and move fast, with improvements coming every single day. I've been following the evolution since the first release, and I'm impressed. This tells me that the future holds amazing things. They will get there eventually. For that alone, the plugin surely deserves my five-star rating.
