Moderated by [@get_dave](https://profiles.wordpress.org/get_dave/profile/). ## GutenbergGutenberg The Gutenberg project is the new Editor Interface for WordPress. The editor improves the process and experience of creating new content, making writing rich content much simpler. It uses ‘blocks’ to add richness rather than shortcodes, custom HTML etc. 󠀁[https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/](https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/)󠁿 PluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory 󠀁[https://wordpress.org/plugins/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/)󠁿 or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party. release * At the time of the meeting the latest release was [10.5.4](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/releases/tag/v10.5.4). * [@get_dave](https://profiles.wordpress.org/get_dave/) noted [10.6 RC](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/releases/tag/v10.6.0-rc.1) is due today (May 5th) with the stable release on May 12th. * Riad asked for volunteers to release the [RC for 10.6](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/releases/tag/v10.6.0-rc.1)– this was completed post-meeting by [@vdwijngaert](https://profiles.wordpress.org/vdwijngaert/). ## WordPress 5.8 * Feature freeze for Gutenberg for WordPress 5.8 is **May 19th** (10.7 RCrelease candidate One of the final stages in the version release cycle, this version signals the potential to be a final release to the public. Also see [alpha (beta)](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2021/page/38/?output_format=md#alpha-beta).). * [The release schedule for WP 5.8](https://make.wordpress.org/core/5-8/) is available. * Riad noted that to follow the progress, we have these two things: - [A project](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/projects/55) to see all the different mandatory tasks for this release. - [A merge issue](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/31322) to track the progress of the integration of the Gutenberg updates into trunktrunk A directory in Subversion containing the latest development code in preparation for the next major release cycle. If you are running "trunk", then you are on the latest revision. before feature freeze date. * Riad asked for folks to [review and help with the experimental APIs in this Issue](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/31322). * [@gziolo](https://profiles.wordpress.org/gziolo/) is already working on bringing Gutenberg 10.5 into WordPress trunk. * [@youknowriad](https://profiles.wordpress.org/youknowriad/) is the Editor Tech lead for 5.8. ## Full Site Editing Next Steps * Reminder about [Hector Prieto’s _Full Site Editing Go/No Go: Next steps_ post](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2021/04/20/full-site-editing-go-no-go-next-steps/) which summarizes scope for Gutenberg in WordPress 5.8. * To summarise, the scope is roughly: - **BlockBlock Block is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor. The idea combines concepts of what in the past may have achieved with shortcodes, custom HTML, and embed discovery into a single consistent API and user experience. theme building** - **Theme blocks (eg: Query, Navigation, Site Logo…etc) ** - **Template editing within the post editor** - **Widgets Editor & Block Widgets in the CustomizerCustomizer Tool built into WordPress core that hooks into most modern themes. You can use it to preview and modify many of your site’s appearance settings. ** - **Persistent List view in the post editor** - **Duotone design tool ** - **Gallery block refactor** * Riad said we’re already in a good state as everything is developed but we may still have to do some calls about whether to keep everything or reconsider some parts of it. ## What’s new in Gutenberg [@ajitbohra](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ajitbohra/) posted [What’s New In Gutenberg for the end of April](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2021/04/30/whats-new-in-gutenberg-10-5-28-april/). Highlight’s included: * New block patterns and pattern transformations * “Template Editing Mode” – enables editing templates without leaving the Post Editor. * File Block now supports embedding PDFs in most major browser * Block widgets in the Customizer now have media upload and richtext formats. * Fix autoscrolling when selecting partially “off screen” blocks. ## Key Project updates Updates were requested for the key projects. ### Global Styles [@nosolosw](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nosolosw/) provided [an update async via a Github Issue](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/20331#issuecomment-832542457). I have omitted it here for brevity. [@youknowriad](https://profiles.wordpress.org/youknowriad/) also provided us with a summary update: * the new theme.jsonJSON JSON, or JavaScript Object Notation, is a minimal, readable format for structuring data. It is used primarily to transmit data between a server and web application, as an alternative to XML. format merged * we’re making `theme.json` stable (no more `experimental-theme.json` ) in 10.6. ### Block based WidgetWidget A WordPress Widget is a small block that performs a specific function. You can add these widgets in sidebars also known as widget-ready areas on your web page. WordPress widgets were originally created to provide a simple and easy-to-use way of giving design and structure control of the WordPress theme to the user. Editor and Customizer. [@andraganescu](https://profiles.wordpress.org/andraganescu/) provided the update. * The widgets editor has gone through [an amazing round ](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/24687) of polish. * Grouped up only late last week, this week all the major testing blockers have had their fixes merged in time for the new Gutenberg release. * The aim is to have a call for testing as soon as possible to collect feedback on the state and progress of the project. ### Navigation Block [@joen](https://profiles.wordpress.org/joen/) provided an async update: * Still primarily focused on navigation block, and to enable patterns. * Hoping to help land the hamburger menu PR, which I’d appreciate your eyes on: [github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/30047](http://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/30047) [@mkaz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mkaz/) also provided: * Responsive hamburger menu aiming for GB 10.7 [PR-30047](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/30047) eyes welcome * Dynamic Home URLURL A specific web address of a website or web page on the Internet, such as a website’s URL www.wordpress.org is the last must-have for 5.8 in progress and looking good  [PR-30926](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/30926) * Refining placeholder and design ### Navigation Editor screen [@get_dave](https://profiles.wordpress.org/get_dave/) provided an update: * The Nav editor continues to see steady progress. * We now have all entity (post, page, tagtag A directory in Subversion. WordPress uses tags to store a single snapshot of a version (3.6, 3.6.1, etc.), the common convention of tags in version control systems. (Not to be confused with post tags.)…etc) block variations serialising to/parsing from their respective `nav_menu_item` s. So when you add a Post link it stays synced to that Post. * We also have lots of work going on regarding notifying users about unsaved changes. * Both nav block and editor features have also seen background improvements to stability and test coverage. ### Full Site Editing The meeting agreed this was mostly covered by the above items. [@paaljoachim](https://profiles.wordpress.org/paaljoachim/) did ask if someone could provide an async update on the Page templates. Feel free to leave an update in the comments if you have one. ### Mobile Team * Shipped: - Block Editor Settings Endpoint ( [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/29969](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/29969)) - Added a fix for the Press action on sliders ([https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/gutenberg-mobile/pull/3404](https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/gutenberg-mobile/pull/3404)), - Started work on iOSiOS The operating system used on iPhones and iPads. share extension * In Progress: - Gallery Block Refactor ( [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/26823](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/26823)) * - Editor Onboarding - Global Style Support – Colors - Reusable blocks - Adding search to the block inserter - Embed block - Slash inserter ( [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/29772](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/29772)) ## Task Coordination **[@annezazu](https://profiles.wordpress.org/annezazu/)**: * the usual grinding away for the FSE Outreach Program! * starting to [answer round two of questions](https://make.wordpress.org/test/2021/04/28/fse-program-bring-your-questions-round-two/)( submit by May 12th). * ran a [hallway hangout to chat about FSE items](https://make.wordpress.org/test/2021/04/29/hallway-hangout-discussion-on-full-site-editing-issues-prs-designs-29-april/). * updated documentation to [include how to run group testing](https://make.wordpress.org/test/handbook/full-site-editing-outreach-experiment/how-to-test-fse/). * [winding down the fifth call for testing](https://make.wordpress.org/test/2021/04/14/fse-program-testing-call-5-query-quest/). * Summary post for the fifth call for testing should be shipped this week. **[@aristath](https://profiles.wordpress.org/aristath/):** * Last week was Greek/Orthodox Easter so it was a half working week here: * Continued working on PR to autogenerate anchors for headings – [#30825](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/30825).

We have a REST APIREST API The REST API is an acronym for the RESTful Application Program Interface (API) that uses HTTP requests to GET, PUT, POST and DELETE data. It is how the front end of an application (think “phone app” or “website”) can communicate with the data store (think “database” or “file system”) [https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/](https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/) endpoint and I have a [POC implementation](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/31464) which will need design and technical refinement. **[@ntsekouras](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ntsekouras/)**: * Add semantic wrapper element in Query block([https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/31421](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/31421)) * Fix redo/undo icons for RTL languages([https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/31219](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/31219)) **[@vdwijngaert](https://profiles.wordpress.org/vdwijngaert/)**: * Working on an accessible (and reusable) way of describing a path (eg: go to ** Settings > Reading**) to follow, came up in [31122](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/31122) * Resuming work on the first step of duplicating post/page title to the top toolbar( issue: [27093](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/27093), PR: [31288](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/31288)) * Tweaking the `ImageResizeControl` behavior, now it returns `NaN` when empty or invalidinvalid A resolution on the bug tracker (and generally common in software development, sometimes also _notabug_) that indicates the ticket is not a bug, is a support request, or is generally invalid. [31355](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/31355) * Gave a go at fixing block conversion for tag in the middle of a paragraph [31374](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/31374), could use a review. **[@desrosj](https://profiles.wordpress.org/desrosj/)** * related to the wrapper element selectors that we’ve been adding, I did open up [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/31502](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/31502) to address a few concerns I thought of there. * Feedback is welcome! **[@jorgefilipecosta](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jorgefilipecosta/)**: * Helping the merge of the theme.json shape changes (with reviews suggestions etc). * I also made some PR reviews not related to global styles. * I added some PR’s removing unused code APIAPI An API or Application Programming Interface is a software intermediary that allows programs to interact with each other and share data in limited, clearly defined ways.’s and stabilising other API’s. * Changed the way the global styles cpt is associated to a theme to use a taxonomyTaxonomy A taxonomy is a way to group things together.

[@annezazu](https://profiles.wordpress.org/annezazu/) noted for task coordination purposes that much of Automattic that focuses on the editor space is going to be on a remote, virtual  meetup next week (12th & 13th). It might mean less of us coming to the core editor chat or slightly less responsiveness during those days but it’ll probably depend on the person. ### Please reconnect your GithubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers.

[@paaljoachim](https://profiles.wordpress.org/paaljoachim/) wanted to highlight this issue: [Add a plugin to disable the block based Widgets editor](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/31331). As a plugin has been added if/when a user wants to go back to using the Classic Widget screen. I am hesitant. As it should be easier to jump between old <-> new. [@andraganescu](https://profiles.wordpress.org/andraganescu/) responded: “Easier” is complex. Adding buttons to switch in and out may sound easier, but using the same system that has been used for years via plugins can be easier as well. Opening that issue, I did think about the option to add an “opt out” button. But that would mean adding an opt in button as well. And that would mean adding a user setting. And, if not a user setting then a way to store the opt in state. This, as the welcome screen in the Guteneberg editor has shown us, is not a reliable way. [@andraganescu](https://profiles.wordpress.org/andraganescu/) indicated there would be a “Welcome screen” on first use of the new Widget editor with clear information about how to install the Plugin to easily opt out. [@andraganescu](https://profiles.wordpress.org/andraganescu/) also confirmed there will be multiple touch points: * Post install page. * Welcome screen. * Make post with more information. ## Wrap up Due to the meeting taking longer than usual [@get_dave](https://profiles.wordpress.org/get_dave/) wrapped up by encouraging any further open floor questions to be left async as a comments (below).
