Gutenberg, Default WordPress Editor

What is WordPress Gutenberg?

Gutenberg is the modern block-based editor introduced in WordPress, allowing users to create pages with a visual drag-and-drop experience. Instead of using a single text area like the Classic Editor, Gutenberg uses blocks for text, images, buttons, embeds, and other elements.

How to Edit a Page Using Gutenberg?

  1. Access the Editor:

    • Log in to your WordPress dashboard.
    • Navigate to Pages → All Pages.
    • Click Edit on the page you want to update.
  2. Adding and Modifying Content:

    • Click the + (Add Block) button to insert elements like text, images, buttons, lists, and more.
    • Use the toolbar to format text, align content, or adjust block settings.
    • Drag and rearrange blocks to organize your page layout.
  3. Using Block Settings:

    • Each block has its own settings available in the right sidebar.
    • You can adjust text size, colors, backgrounds, and spacing for better design.
  4. Publishing and Saving Changes:

    • Click Preview to check how your page looks before publishing.
    • Click Update to save your changes.
    • Click Publish if it’s a new page.
