Please forgive this interruption to my regular blog. I’ve been doing some research on how to use these newfangled Gutenberg Blocks and am trying to decide whether or not to stay with Word Press or find another free blog host. Either option will require some amount of learning. None of the tutorials for GBs address how to use them on the app – they’re all web-based – so I’m on my own. What you see below constitutes the class “Gutenberg Blocks 101” as I navigate through all the block possibilities.
Media and text block. Picture next to image. Cardinal unsuccessfully hiding.
But now there’s a new paragraph.
What if I want to make a caption?
(Heading block) Gutenberg is not pleased.
“Many people dislike Gutenberg blocks!”
This is a quote block. This spot is supposed to be for the citation. I made this quote up, but I’ll be surprised if it’s not on the internet somewhere.
- The list block
- I like lists.
- I like bullet points, but you can also get the list numbered.
- Isn’t this boring?
- Remember, this is important classroom experience.
- End of list.
I guess I could probably make this work, but I might start looking around for other options. Got any suggestions? The best way to use these blocks is probably by creating blog posts on the website versus the app, so I might have to try that next. I’ll return to my previously scheduled blog writing tomorrow!
I’ll probably delete this in the morning. (This is called a “pre-formatted block.” Hmmmm.....)
