Configuring Your WordPress Workspace
Creating a new page or post using the native block editor can feel overwhelming and almost baron compared to the traditional classic editor. But it's not confusing once you dig into it and configure it to your liking. The following configuration recommendations come from our struggles in trying to create the most effective workflow possible using the tools we have. Below is a simple visual illustration of how we work in the block editor.
Log into your WordPress dashboard and open an existing page or create a new page to follow along with the steps below.
- With the block editor open, click the Settings icon to open the Settings panel.
