Gutenberg 19.9 Introduces Style Book to Classic Themes

    • Oh Hallelujah! Christmas is today! Thank you WP Gods!

    • The best change would be to scrap Gutenberg!
      The next best change would be if you combined classic editor with Gutenberg with the option to edit classic so that all the bling bling disappears.

      I’ve really tried to work in Gutenberg but it doesn’t work, it takes too long to just post a small post. What is extremely annoying, however, is that lines, boxes and many other things (=bling bling) pop up a little anyway while you are working. If you place the cursor in the edit box, bling bling opens both above and lines below, etc. Extremely annoying with all this flashing in time and out of time. Why not make it visible all the time?

    • Gutenberg 19.9’s new Style Book for classic themes is a game-changer! It provides a comprehensive overview of your site’s design elements, making it easy to manage colors, typography, and block styles. Great addition to the classic themes!

    • Wow, Gutenberg 19.9 is like an early New Year’s gift for WordPress users! The Style Book for classic themes and the Query Total block are game-changers. Finally, my site visitors won’t feel lost in the content jungle anymore. 🚀 Thanks, Gutenberg team—now I can nerd out on my WordPress setup during the holidays! 🎄😂

    • Hopefully this is a step in the right direction. I like the stock block editor for posts and pages. The Site Editor UI is confusing for many users. The Customizer is straightforward. Hybrid themes like GenerateTheme, Astra, Kadence, etc. are practical. I’d like a way for theme.json to apply the same styles to the frontend as it does the editor in order to make hybrid themes easier to develop. Then everybody could have what they want instead of this black or white Classic vs Gutenberg dichotomy.

    • Listening to the new Webmasters podcast from Brian Coords today, and Google’s Felix Arntz, who works on the Performance plugin, said something extremely important:

      “The single biggest performance improvement you can make to your website is switching from a classic to a block theme.”

    • It’s good to hear that Gutenberg 19.9 introduces the Style Book for classic themes, a new Query Total block for improved navigation, and phpMyAdmin support in wp-env for developers. Key updates also include resolution controls for featured images and an inline reset button for colors. Bug fixes address editor crashes and visual alignment issues.
