Cathy spoke of the changes being made to the WordPress editing screens.

Starting with version 5.0, the editing screen will be re-formatted to use multiple “blocks” instead of a single large area where all the content is put.

Pictures, text, quotes, list, and more will have individual blocks which must be inserted on the screen before inserting content. These blocks can be moved into different positions depending on the layout desired.

This change has been hotly debated in the industry with some that love it and many that don’t. If after trying it, you don’t like it, you can install the “Classic editor” plugin and continue as if nothing changed.

Give Cathy a call if you have questions about the changes.
