This is a demo post exploring the different styles in the block editor (codenamed "Gutenberg"). This is just a development post - we haven't yet released this publicly.

Here is some bold text.

This is an H2

Most of your content should be contained in H2 subheadings.

In version 4.0.0 and later, body font-sizes have been standardized across all themes at 16px. Headings have been standardized using "em", meaning a multiple of the 16px body-font size.

For more details, see this blog post.

This is an H3

H3 can be used to sub-categorize your content under H2 headings. You typically won't use these when making recipes posts.

This is an H4

H4 is relatively uncommon, except in technical documentation. As a food blogger, anything you consider using for H4 should be either bumped up to H3, or simple paragraph text.

This is an H5

No real application for this outside of technical and legal documents.

This is an H6

Why even bother at this point?

Simple Image Block

We do not recommend using image captions.

We don't recommend using the gallery block due to poor accessibility support.

Instead, use the WordPress-core "columns" block and insert normal images into the columns:

Columns

inserting a column block in the WordPress editor

When inserting columns, you'll be given the choice of different default column widths.

For a similar mobile and desktop experience, use 50/50 for normal page layouts (720 / 2 = 360), and 33/33/33 for full-width page layouts (1080 / 3 = 360).

Mobile is the most important, making up approximately 75% of pageviews for most food blogs in 2018 and on.

Process shots

For process shots, you can stack an image and text:

Instruction #1

Instruction #2

paleo category image

Instruction #3

gluten free category image

Instruction #4

Make sure to leave "stack on mobile" enabled in the columns block:

  1. Step 1: Combine all spices into a large bowl and combine thoroughly with mixture
  1. Step 2: Form into ball shape with your hands
  1. Step 3: Press into patties
  1. Step 4: Cook in oven for x minutes at 400 degrees
  1. Step 5: Remove and add to serving plate
  1. Step 6: Assemble and serve!

Here's an example that's not stacked on mobile:

Instruction #4

Fractions

The Feast Plugin contains an enhancement to convert text-based characters to fractions, so that you get ½ instead of 1 / 2 and ¼ instead of 1 / 4.

  • ½
  • ¼
  • ¾

Acronyms

The Feast Plugin contains an enhancement to convert recipe acronyms to improve screen reader accessibility, so that it reads the word teaspoon instead of "tee ess pee" and tablespoon instead of "tee bee ess pee".
