Is there any way to add a border around each page?
Ughhh, please go over the glitch issues. Cannot be ignored.
Yeoman's work on the block editor, Jamie. Big thanks for your work.
Thanks so much for the news and fat cat. ;~)
I try to watch everything that you video you put out, and when I do, I always feel smarter! Thanks Jamie, great information.
The new version of WP 5.9 looks great. It's disruptive, so which is the best theme to use? Love your style. Keep up the good work.
I like your daughters touch 🙂
Absolutely brilliant! You had me in stitches with the Alan Rickman comment voiceover. Great work! A perfect way to end the week and stay in the WordPress loop.
Many thanks dear Jamie for this video – Keep up the great project -;)
Another great video. Group Block looks great although should have been there ages ago. Not being able to multi select was so 1980's :). Good to see columns has got an upgrade as well. Well needed. The roasting reviews are NOW mainly because people don't understand it and are maybe not using a decent theme. My move from storefront to blocksy was game changer. As standard blocks get better (as you pointed out in the video) we now don't need the plethora of plugins which caused instability and the need to upgrade almost daily. Gutenberg is still quite painful to use but SO much better and more stable than it was at last. They just launched it far to soon and forced people to use it and no-one likes that. They should have made it more exclusive and people would have wanted to use it 🙂 Simple marketing but as we know not the developers strong point. A classic case of removing Classic Coke 🙂
Jamie; I have a question. what is the best way to put vertical line between two blocks? (in the center of two blocks. Probably, I will need 3 columns to do that but I am curious how to do it simply.
If you had told him his voice would be used like this, Alan Rickman would have said, "That would be a neat trick."
Thank you creating this wonderful show, Jamie! Good luck! ~ Birgit
Yo Jamie, Love the Friday Block News idea. Thanks for staying on the cutting edge of blocks and also for reporting on all the incredible plug-ins out there. Who knew ?!
Please Add WooCommerce…. to FSE Demos (Your a Hero!!!!)
Looking forward to following this. Keep rocking, Jamie!
Loving the Gutenberg news!!!!!
Very good content!
Do we need to download the Gutenberg plugin to have the update (margins) ?
Thank you for that video. Very nice idea to read the hating comments and very funny to add the IA voice haha
Just last week I was scratching my head thinking how to add margin to group block, I had to finally add custom css and add classes of that in group block, now its a relieve..
That metaverse plugin is interesting – I looked for info on it, now I am in a rabbit hole learning about GLB images and how to make them
Great news, but WordPress team should stop to fight against success of page buidlers with too many updates of Gutenberg. People hate their new FSE and I know that WordPress 6.X is planned for this year again
Thank you!!
