My First Post using the Gutenberg Block Editor for WordPress 5.0
So far so good with the Gutenberg update…
Comments
- Very intuitive – within the first 15 minutes
- No glitches when I clicked the Upgrade to WP 5.0 button
To illustrate the usage of the block editor I will add various types of blocks.
This is a H2 heading 😉
This is a paragraph block :{
This is a paragraph of Lorem Ipsum source: https://www.lipsum.com is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
