WordPress Gutenberg Editor - Master The Basics & Beyond

In this lesson, we are going to introduce you to what’s new in WordPress 6.9, the final major release of the year. There is plenty to explore, even though this update doesn’t ship with a new default theme. The Command Pallet everywhere is (in my opinion) the star of this show. There are new blocks as well as upgrades to existing features so let's have a look-see.

In this lesson, we will have a look at the new Notes feature also known as block-level commenting.

In this lesson, we will have a look at the new feature in WordPress 6.9 that allows you to hide blocks you have in your post or page editor. You can work on them, then hide them when you are done, so they will not be in the way of anyone else working on that post or page.

In this lesson, we will have a look at the new accordion block released in WordPress 6.9.

In this lesson, we will check out the new stretchy text feature also known as the Fit Text feature, that has been added to version 6.9 of WordPress.

In this lesson, we will have a look at the new terms query block now available in WordPress 6.9.

In this lesson, we will have a look at the new math block available in WordPress 6.9.

This is a neat block for when you need to display a math formula including the results.

In this lesson, we will cover some of the miscellaneous items added or changed in WordPress 6.9, that did not make it into their own class in this mini-series.

In this lecture we will begin our look into the new stuff that has been changed and/or added in the latest version of WordPress, which is version 6.8. There is not a bunch in this release and they are even calling this the Polish  Release because of the fixing and updating instead of adding new stuff.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new Bcrypt password security feature in WordPress 6.8.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new Speculative Loading feature just added to WordPress version 6.8.

In this lecture, we will cover the addition of the Block Editors StyleBook to the Classic Themes that support block editing BUT.., do NOT support Full Site Editing.

In this lecture, we will check out the new image block feature that converts any image to your featured image.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the updated style panel in WordPress 6.8.

In this lecture, we will cover some of the miscellaneous items added or changed in WordPress 6.8, that did not make it into their own class in this mini-series.

In this lecture, we will examine the new features and updates in the latest version of WordPress, version 6.7. This is the last major release of the year and includes, among other things, the new default WordPress theme, Twenty-Twenty-Five.

We will take a look at this new theme as well as the other goodies in this release.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new 2025 default theme that comes with the version 6.7 update.

If you want to follow along but do not yet have version 6.7 installed, you can use the WordPress playground, which is a web-based environment that lets you 'play around' with different WordPress apps, which I briefly cover in this lecture.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new Zoom-out feature just added to WordPress version 6.7.

I could tell you that this feature lets you see more of your work area while in the editor but instead, I'll just show you...

In this lecture, we will cover the updated Data Views and how these improvements can make using the full site editor even easier.

In this lecture, I want to discuss the Custom Post Types or Custom Fields (WordPress is calling these Custom Models) that were to be part of the 6.7 release.

What I was expecting was a fully functioning tool that lets us users create new custom post types. Instead what we have at this point is an updated Block Bindings that gets us closer to having non-developer type users, being able to create custom post types or custom fields.

I do a walk through of the feature and where we can get updated info as it comes available.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the newly updated Fluid Fonts or Fluid Typography available in WordPress 6.7.

A good way to demonstrate this is in the site editor in both the older version 6.6 and the newer 6.7 version for a comparison.

In this lecture, we will cover some of the miscellaneous items added or changed in WordPress 6.7, that did not make it into their own class in this mini-series.

In this lecture, we will begin our look into the new stuff that has been changed and/or added in the latest version of WordPress, which is version 6.6

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new Custom Shadows feature in WordPress 6.6.

Prior to version 6.6 we can add various shadow styles but now in 6.6, we can create our own custom shadows and not have just the default shadows packaged with WordPress styles.

In this lecture, we will examine the new negative margins feature that was just added to WordPress version 6.6.

In this lecture, we will cover the synced pattern overrides feature.

This feature did not make it into version 6.5, but it looks like enough of the issues it had prior to the 6.5 release earlier this year have been fixed, so here it is.

In this lecture, we will check out the new grid layout feature also known as the grid block, that has been added to version 6.6 of WordPress.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new style variations available in WordPress 6.6.

In this lecture, we will cover some of the miscellaneous items added or changed in WordPress 6.6 that did not make it into their own lecture in this mini-series.

In this lecture, we will begin our look into the new stuff that has been changed and/or added in the latest version of WordPress.., version 6.5

In this lecture, we will have a look at one of my favorite features in the page & post editor and that is the List-View. Now you can rename any block within your editors list-view - yipie!!

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new font library feature that has finally landed in WordPress 6.5.

This lecture covers the new image cropping override feature added in WordPress 6.5.

[Nerd speak: Cover Block-fixed aspect ratio]

This lecture covers the new data view which is moving us closer to a more similar look between the site editor and the post and page editor.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the much-improved Revisions feature.

This feature mostly deals with the Styles but has a small update for normal (post/page editor) revisions.

In this lecture, we will cover many of the miscellaneous items added or changed in WordPress 6.5, that did not make it into their own class.

In this lecture, we will begin our look into all the new stuff that has been changed and/or added in the latest version of WordPress.., version 6.4

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new image lightbox feature. On 2 of my sites, I have a plugin installed to do this.., and with WordPress version 6.4, that plugin can be removed.

Let's have a look at this new feature and how to set it up.

In this lecture, we will have a quick look at the new image preview feature in the editors' list view.

This lecture covers the new image placeholder feature added in WordPress 6.4.

This lecture covers the solution to one of my bigger pet peeves in the post and page editor and that is the inline toolbar for the various blocks that keep getting in the way.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new Pattern category feature in the pattern builder.

For a while now, you have been able to share your patterns among other WordPress sites but now, with version 6.4, sharing your patterns is a lot easier.

NOTE: At the time of my writing this, there is still a bug in the new pattern-share feature that I demonstrated in this lecture. Good thing I also showed the alternate (original) method as well.

In this lecture, we will visit one of my favorite parts of the WordPress editor and that is the list view feature.

Now, with WordPress 6.4, while in the list view, we can rename the group block after it has been added to our content.

I also remind you of the workaround that allows us to add names to other blocks in the list view.

In this lecture,  we will check out the new design feature in WordPress 6.4 that allows us to add vertical text to our content. We also see how to do some styling of that vertical text.

In this lecture, we will see how we can now add a clickable button in the navigation block.

Hi, In this lecture we will check out the updates made to the Cammand Pallet in WordPress 6.4.

The command pallet was introduced to WordPress in version 6.3 and is basically a toolbox of shortcut commands.

It is finally here! The WordPress 6.4 update includes the new default theme called 2024.

This default theme is geared toward more of a business website than in past default themes.

In this lecture, we will cover many of the miscellaneous items added or changed in WordPress 6.4, that did not make it into their own class.

I'll begin with an addition I'd like to see go away...

In this lecture, we will introduce you to the new 6.3 version of WordPress. As always, there are lots of speed, performance, and accessibility updates under the hood. Plus, there are some big changes and additions in the Site and Post/Page editors.

There are also new blocks, adjustments to existing blocks and reusable blocks are now called synced patterns.

Let's get going!

In this and the next lecture, we will have a look at the enhanced site editor.

Prior to WordPress 6.3, when you opened the site editor [show], you had the templates and template parts that you could add, edit and manage.

Now when you open the site editor, you have access to much more.

In this lecture, part two of the enhanced site editor, we will finish our tour with a look at how we can now edit our content within the site editor.

In this lecture, we will check out the new Style Revisions feature added in WordPress 6.3.

Similar to the page and post revisions, the Style Revisions feature allows you to revert back to a previous version of a Style you have edited.

Lets have a look...

In this lecture, we will check out the new distraction-free mode. We have covered the distraction-free mode for the page and post editor in previous classes, but now we have the distraction-free mode within the site editor.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new and improved or enhanced.., block patterns in WordPress 6.3.

Loads to get through here, so let's dive in.

In this lecture, we will check out one of the new blocks added in WordPress 6.3. This one is the details block which works pretty much the same as an accordion block you will find in some 3rd party page builders.

This new details block allows you to hide and reveal your site content super smoothly, making your website a better experience for your site visitors. And that is a good thing.

In this lecture, we will check out another new block added in WordPress 6.3 called the footnote block.

This block is super useful when you want to add a footnote to your content. The footnote can be for a lot of things - you want to give credit to a quote in your article, put the author's name in the footnote. You want to add more details for an item in your content that might not 'sound' right within the content but can be added as a footnote.

There are a lot of use cases, but let's see how to use this new block.

In this lecture, we will check out the WordPress 6.3 new and improved margin and padding settings you will see on your page and post editors.

To help demonstrate this new margin and padding look, I'll compare the post editor from WordPress 6.2 with the exact same post setup in WordPress 6.3.

This gives us more control when it comes to margins & padding settings.

In this lecture, we will demonstrate a new feature added in WordPress 6.3 called the command palette.

The Command Palette is a powerful navigation tool that we will be seeing more and more of in future releases of WordPress.

Basically, the Command Palette is a keyboard shortcut tool on steroids.

This is a tool that is currently only available within the site editor window (kinda & I explain this in the lecture) and allows you to navigate to almost anything that can be found in the site editor.

In this lecture, we will talk about the new Theme Preview feature added in WordPress 6.3.

This feature only works on block themes but with it, you can preview how your site will look with installed but not yet active block themes.

And there is more to this feature than just being able to view the theme - you can even edit the theme while it is still not the active theme.

Let's have a look-see at this new theme preview feature.

In this lecture, we will demonstrate the new aspect ratio feature added to our featured image and image blocks in WordPress 6.3

This new feature allows you to specify to the post and page editor that this image needs to be displayed in a certain size or aspect ratio and keep that size even when that image is replaced with a different-sized image.

In this lecture, we will cover many of the miscellaneous items added or changed in WordPress 6.3, that did not make it into their own class.

In this lecture, we will introduce you to the new 6.2 version of WordPress. There are lots of speed and performance updates under the hood. Plus there are some big changes and additions in the Site and Post/Page editors.

Let's get going!

This lecture will cover the new distraction-free mode. This is one more way to help us focus on our content creation and not get bothered (or distracted) by all the stuff in our editor window.

In this lecture, we will detail another huge update in WordPress 6.2 .., and the full site editing (FSE), in particular, is the browse mode I briefly mentioned in the (previous) intro lecture.

This browse mode feature allows us to access, create and manage all the templates and template parts in a single location. This may be one more step toward a complete replacement of all page-builders - in my humble opinion.

Let's check it out.

This lecture deals with the Page/Post Editor and the updates to the block inserter.

There are a few different items within the block inserter that have changed and they are all changes for the good.

Let's have a look at these updates.

As I have mentioned in previous lectures, the Page/Post editor list view is one of if not my favorite Block Editor features. Well, in WordPress 6.2, the list view gets an update that makes it even better. Actually, there are a couple of these list view updates, so let us waste no more time.

In this lecture, we will have a look into the changes made to the Page/Post editor windows Block Settings sidebar.

I show a comparison between WP 6.1 and WP 6.2 in order to display the updates a little easier.

This lecture covers the updates to the navigation block. There is a bunch to get into, so let's not dilly-dally with the description and get right into the lecture.

In this lecture, we will go over the new Sticky Positioning feature added in Version 6.2 of WordPress.

WordPress 6.2 has added this sticky position feature to keep a block at the top of the viewport when users scroll down the page.

Let's have a look.

In this lecture, we will take a look at the new style book added to WordPress 6.2.

The Style Book allows us to view all the different possible block styles in our site editor window. This is a very cool tool so let's check it out.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the updated styles feature in WordPress 6.2.

The addition of the Style Book is a big improvement to the overall design feature of WordPress, but there are even more improvements to the Styles feature, like being able to copy the Styles from one block to another.

Let's go.

This lecture will detail the additions and changes to the Patterns Inserter. For a quick review, the Patterns inserter is in the Page/Post editor. And we will also see it in action within the WordPress Patterns repository.

In this lecture, we will have a look at some of the many changes that, while important, are not big enough changes to merit a lecture all to themselves.

I may have mentioned some of these in previous lectures, but maybe they were worth mentioning twice.

In this lecture, we will cover an overview of the updates you will see in the new version of WordPress, which is 6.1.

This being the last major update of the year, WordPress is dropping the newest default theme called - you guessed it, Twenty Twenty-Three. Okay, maybe you didn't guess it, but the new theme and a bunch more newness await, so let us begin.

This lecture will cover the updates to the borders that can be used on certain blocks within your WordPress post and page editor.

I've seen other tutorials that say, with version 6.1, you can add borders to every block.., - they only say that because they cannot show that.

You cannot add borders to every block unless you want to manually code the CSS, but let's instead cover the blocks you CAN add & style your borders in.

In this lecture, I will detail the latest updates to a feature I have a love-hate relationship with - the Block Locks feature.

In WordPress 6.1, this phase of the block locks is called content-only editing. The idea behind this feature is to protect patterns and templates from being accidentally broken while editing the content within the patterns and templates.

In this lecture, we will check out the changes to the layout of the post and page editor's right sidebar document settings.

A couple of things have been moved around and item names have been changed so lets have a look...

In this lecture, we are covering the changes or what we are calling 'improvements' to the List Block.

The 'List Block' is the one that quickly allows you to create ordered and unordered lists within your post or page.

Basically, these are bullet points with numbers (ordered list) or without numbers (unordered list).

These improvements make using the List Block much easier.

In this lecture, it is time to read.., I mean, we are covering the newly added Time to read feature in WordPress 6.1.

While there are WordPress plugins that will provide a progress bar or some type of meter letting the reader know about how much time it will take the average person to read it, this feature we are covering in this class.., is not that - at least not yet.

So let us have a look at what it is...

In this lecture, we will have a look at the much-improved navigation block.

There is much I can tell you about the improvements to the Navigation Block but instead, let me show you.

In this lecture, we will have a look at the new templates added to our site editor as of WordPress 6.1.

In this lecture, we will have a look at just some of the many features of the new default theme called Twenty Twenty-Three.

We have a lot to cover so let us get into it.

As I mentioned in the first lecture in this what is new in WordPress 6.1 set of lectures, I will cover some of the most.., but not all of the additions and changes we are getting with WordPress 6.1

In this lecture, I wanted to highlight some of the other items you will see in WordPress 6.1 that I have not yet touched on in the previous 9 lectures.

In this lecture, we will take a look at an overview of the new things in WordPress 6.0.

In the next several lectures we will do a more detailed look at a few of these updates like the improvements to my favorite - the List View Tool. We will check out the new templates available in the Block-Based themes, the new things you can do with some of the existing blocks, as well as a look at the new blocks. Let's dig in.

The style feature is not new to the block-based themes but the style switcher is. This is a set of presets you can use to quickly change the entire look of your site by simply clicking on one of the preset panels. You can then go in and alter any of the items in your newly selected style.

Let's check out this lecture and have a look.

This is a big deal.

In WordPress 5.9 the exporter was added but that was just for templates and template parts.

This lecture details the theme exporter and some of the benefits both obvious and the not-so obvious.

In this lecture, we will look at the additional items in the Add New Template section on your block-based theme templates page.

This is theme-specific so some themes will have more or less than others.

Let's have a look.

In this lecture, we will look at the main changes in the block editor.

These changes and additions cover things like updates to the List View Tool, being able to lock your blocks (this feature needs improvements) and some cool things you can now do with your Cover blocks & a bunch more so check it out.

In this lecture, we will look at some of the main additions to the Blocks in WordPress version 6.0.

The new blocks mentioned here are those delivered with the default WordPress installation and do not include any that show up after you install certain plugins like KadenceWP or other Gutenberg enhancement-type plugins.

I begin with 3 new blocks in this lecture but end up covering many others as well.

In this lecture, we will look at what I call the miscellaneous items in the new WordPress version 6.0. 

So pretty much things that I did not mention in the previous lectures in this what's new in the WordPress 6.0 mini-series, will be covered here.

In this lecture, we will see an overview of the updates to the new version of WordPress - 5.9

In the next several lectures we will do a more detailed look at a few of these updates like the Full Site Editing or FSE, the much-awaited changes to the editors list view feature, the new navigation block, the new pattern library at WordPress.org, the new block themes and some of the new stuff in the Block Editor.

In this lecture, we will do an overview of what you will see in version 5.9 full site editing.

In this lecture, we will look at the new and greatly improved List View tool in the block editor.

In this lecture, we will take a look at the new navigation block.

In this lecture, we will take a closer look at the menus that are added to the navigation block we covered in the previous lecture.

In this lecture, we will go over the WordPress patterns in version 5.9 and the pattern library at wordpress.org

In this lecture, I want to point out a few more things about block-based themes that have not been covered in my previous classes - like how to find more block-based themes in the WordPress theme directory?

In this lecture, we will cover some of the miscellaneous items that are new or have changed in WordPress version 5.9

In this Lecture, we will have a look at the additions and changes to the Block editor within WordPress version 5.8.

WordPress 5.8 brings many changes to how WordPress works with images. This Lecture looks at a couple of those. Page load speed is one of the more important goals WordPress wants to maintain as they develop their Full Site Editor. The update in Version 5.8 related to how images are handled is a huge step in that direction.

One of the new items I mentioned in a previous What's New Lecture, is the Query Loop Block.

This Lecture details that new block and some of the cool things you can use it for.

This Lecture will give you a peek at the beginnings of what WordPress Full Site Editor will look like.

There is a bunch to cover so let us dive right in.

WordPress version 5.8 brings a bunch of new goodies that are preparing the platform for what is called Full Site Editing or FSE for short.

This Lecture will give you an overview of these "goodies" then in the following four Lectures, I will detail those goodies one by one.

The previous Lecture covered the non-block editor stuff in the new WordPress version 5.7. This Lecture will cover the additions and changes to the block editor. Lots to cover so let's get to it.

This Lecture will cover the non-block editor additions and changes you will see in the new release of WordPress Version 5.7.

As with the previous What's New Lectures, remember not to update to major releases right away. Give them a week or so before updating.

To close out this set of Lectures on the additions and changes to WordPress with the update to version 5.6, I wanted to cover some of the stuff under the hood - like the expanded auto-updates feature, the improvements to the site health tool, and a couple of other things that for most of us users, we will not even notice.

Continuing where we left off in the previous Lecture on the additions and changes within the WordPress version 5.6 upgrade, this Lecture will have a look at the new default theme called 2021.

This Lecture will cover the changes and additions to the Block Editor with the update to WordPress 5.6.

In this Lecture, I want to go over once again the difference between a major update and a minor update and the importance of not updating the major updates as soon as they are released.

In this Lecture, I'm mainly going to cover some of the cosmetic changes in the user interface, also known as UI.

This Lecture picks up where the previous one left off. Here we will mainly focus on the new goodies in the Block Library and some of the bigger changes in the Block Editor window.

This Lecture will cover the non-Block related items within the 5.5 Update. Things like the built-in XML Sitemap & Lazy Load features just to name a couple.

This Lecture talks about the differences between a Major & Minor WordPress Update and why you should immediately update one but hold off on the other. Also a couple of items in this update that do NOT involve the Block (Gutenberg), Editor.

This Lecture covers the changes and additions within the Block Editor, both Posts & Pages Editors.

This lecture details the many changes in the different Blocks AND a few new blocks as well.

This Lecture will give you a quick look around the Block Editor User Interface.

This Lecture covers the Inline Block Toolbar of our first Post.

This Lecture covers the Block Settings section (right sidebar) of our first Post.

This Lecture will show you how to use the Additional CSS Class feature along with the WordPress Customizer.

In order to best illustrate the use of the Additional CSS Class feature, I'm doing three separate demonstrations JUST ON the combo of the WordPress Customizer & Additional CSS Class box within the advanced section in the right (settings) sidebar.

This Lecture will demo how to add a background-color to a single column which cannot be done any other way. Right now that is.

I've included a copy & paste document in the resource section for this Lecture that contains the code I used in the Lecture.

This Lecture is a continuation of the use of the WordPress Customizer along with the Additional CSS Class feature to add custom CSS to your post or page.

This Lecture will demonstrate the background color change effect when you hover over a column. Currently, this is a feature within the block editor that can ONLY be done with the Additional CSS Class feature located in the advanced section in the right (settings) sidebar.

Like with the previous Lecture, I've included the copy & paste code in the resource section for this lecture.

This Lecture is a continuation of the use of the WordPress Customizer along with the Additional CSS Class feature to add custom CSS to your post or page.

This Lecture will demonstrate the bouncing image effect when you hover over the image. Currently, this is a feature within the block editor that can ONLY be done with the Additional CSS Class feature located in the advanced section in the right (settings) sidebar.

Like with the previous Lecture, I've included the copy & paste code in the resource section for this lecture.

Instead of using the WordPress Customizer along with the Additional CSS Class feature, in this Lecture, we will hard code the styles into our theme.

To begin with, though, I show you how to create a child-theme because that is best practice when adding any custom code to the theme of your site.

The copy & paste code I demo in this lecture (as I show in the video) is a combination of the previous 3 lectures copy & paste codes with a couple of minor changes as I mention in this lecture.

The easiest of the 3 methods, this Lecture shows how to customize the Blocks CSS (Additional CSS Class feature) with a free plugin.

In this Lecture, we will create our first page using the Block Editor (aka Gutenberg Editor).

In this Lecture, we will go over a few ways to test your design on mobil and tablet devices - without using them.

This Lecture demos what you can do when you combine the Column Block with other DEFAULT WordPress Blocks.

*Notice the column width changes when I add the color at about the 39-second mark in this lecture. That only happened because my screen size was small for this recording. This will not happen on your editor window unless you also are working on a small screen area.

In this Lecture, we will show you the basics of what you can do with the Cover Block.

In this Lecture, we will cover the more advanced designs you can craft with your Cover Block.

In this Lecture, we're going to cover what is and how to create a Reusable Block.

Creating reusable blocks is just half the battle. This Lecture covers how to edit the reusable blocks you already have created.

In this Lecture, we will cover what is and how to create (& use) a Reusable Template.

This Lecture, will show you how to access the Reusable Block Management Page and all the cool things you can do here.

In this lecture, we will do a quick overview of the block-based templates you will now be able to create and manage within the Full Site Editing features.

In a previous lecture, I talked about creating reusable templates but those were technically reusable blocks that we converted into normal blocks when we added them to the post or page we wanted them on.

In this lecture, we will have a look at editing our block theme templates.

In this lecture, we will look at creating new block-based templates and template parts. There are a couple of different ways to create these templates and template parts. I show you both methods and which is the best, in my opinion. After you try them I think it will be your opinion as well.

In this lecture, we will begin the customization of a block-based theme.

In both this and the next lecture, we will begin our theme customizations by building out our WordPress header.

In this lecture, we will create the index page template. Actually, we already have that, but it is blank, so we just need to fill it out however we want.
