It’s been two weeks since 11.4, so it’s time for another GutenbergGutenbergThe Gutenberg project is the new Editor Interface for WordPress. The editor improves the process and experience of creating new content, making writing rich content much simpler. It uses ‘blocks’ to add richness rather than shortcodes, custom HTML etc. https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/ release, 11.5!
This update includes BlockBlockBlock is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor. The idea combines concepts of what in the past may have achieved with shortcodes, custom HTML, and embed discovery into a single consistent API and user experience. Gap support, improved support for Flex Layouts, performance improvements, and additional design tools.
Theme / Block Gap Support
Block Gap support adds the ability for blocks to opt-in to a control that allows users to choose the distance between items within a block.
With Block Gap support in place, it has also been added to the Columns, Title, and Navigation blocks.
Buttons in the the Buttons Block move closer together or farther apart as the Block Gap is changed.
Flex Layout Highlights
Following the introduction of Flex Layout in 11.2.0, now Flex Layouts are supported within the Social Links and Group blocks! The Social Links block now has a ‘flex’ justification option, for automatic best-fit.
There is also a new variation of the Group block that allows for flex layout. You can try it out by choosing “Row” from the block inserter.
Social Icons change flow when flex justification is selected.
Site Title and Logo Inside Navigation Block
It’s now possible to build your site logo or title directly into menus, enabling new design possibilities! Insert, and modify the title or logo that you prefer, using design tools, then re-order for your ideal look.
A Site Logo is added to a Navigation Block, then resized and placed.
Global Styles
Global styles are now available to themes by default, allowing block, theme, and patterns to have a reliable set of styles provided by coreCoreCore is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress..
Themes are now able to selectively disable text and background colors. This allows theme authors to provide exactly the experience they’d like to provide users, whether allowing custom colors, gradients, or only their curated selections.
Other Notable Highlights
The Heading Levels menu has been redesigned, and is now vertical, making it easier to visualize the hierarchy.
New vertical Heading Levels menu, with H2 selected.
