scss
directory and paste it to the sass/scss directory of the theme styles. - Import
style.scss
at the end of the main file containing styles. - Import
editor.scss
at the end of the file containing styles which is to be uploaded to the block-editor. - Have fun!
- Download a zip folder/clone a repository.
- Run a console command
npm i
. - Run a console command
gulp
(by default this will run a task that will watch for changes in .scss files). - Add generated
style.css
andeditor.css
for the frontend and block-editor accordingly. - Have fun!
To style blocks in the Block Editor, add the following snippet into functions.php
:
add_theme_support('editor-styles');
add_editor_style( array(
'path_to_editor_style/editor.css',
/* here can be url to Google Font, or another style file */
) );
Some blocks can have "wide" and "full" width, It's up to a theme to support this feature.
- To allow this possibility, add the following snippet into
functions.php
:
add_theme_support( 'align-wide' );
- If a theme supports
align-wide
, it must contain styles for.aligwide
and.alignfull
classes.
You can find styles for this in ./scss/core-blocks/editor/_common.scss - for the block editor and ./scss/core-blocks/style/_common.scss for the frontend.
Some blocks allow you to customize colors. A theme can provide a set of such colors. To support this, add the following snippet into functions.php
:
add_theme_support( 'editor-color-palette', array(
array(
'name' => __( 'Color 1', 'theme-domain' ),
'slug' => 'color-1',
'color' => '#0489ef',
),
array(
'name' => __( 'Color 2', 'theme-domain' ),
'slug' => 'color-2',
'color' => '#484848',
),
array(
'name' => __( 'Color 3', 'theme-domain' ),
'slug' => 'color-3',
'color' => '#e0e0e0',
),
array(
'name' => __( 'Color 4', 'theme-domain' ),
'slug' => 'color-4',
'color' => '#808080',
),
) );
Note that slugs and colors will be used for generating css classes. These colors must correspond to the ones described in the _variables.scss file.
More information on how to configure themes for WordPress 5.x - Gutenberg can be found here.
For your convenience, all styles are divided into two main groups: core-blocks
and getwid-blocks
. Each of them has subgroups for styles
(general styles) and editor
(styles only for the block editor). All files contain templates with the minimum set of selectors for styling different blocks. The _variables.scss
file contains the main variables, including colors.
