Take a look a some of the more common blocks to see how they work, what their properties do, and how they can be used to create interesting content.
- The WordPress block editor has a long list of blocks.…Some, like headings and lists, are self-explanatory,…and some need a little more attention.…In this chapter, we'll take a closer look…at some important blocks you'll use frequently.…I've also created a living document…as an appendix to this course,…which provides further information about each block…and what they do.…Once you've finished watching this course,…you can go back and check out the appendix…and get a full breakdown…of all the block available to you.…Before we start, a quick refresher about the block context.…
For each block, we have three separate sets of controls,…the block toolbar, the block settings,…and the block properties.…These all come into play in this chapter.…
