The panelists answered a number of questions for attendees.
Q1: It felt like Phase 2 went on longer than expected, producing ongoing quality-of-life improvements to the Site Editor. It’s been, in a word, wonderful. While I’m excited for Phase 3 and what lies ahead, is it possible Phase 2 aspects will continue to be revisited and refined concurrently with Phase 3, or is this expect to be a more thorough wind-down — meaning the Site Editor in 6.3 is roughly where it is expected to be going forward?
A1: There’s more to come, and the work isn’t over. Check out this overview GitHub issue here for what’s already planned for iteration.
Q2: Can you assign Patterns to Categories?
A2: Not yet. More info here for anyone interested in the details within this GitHub issue.
Q3: But there are no revisionsRevisionsThe WordPress revisions system stores a record of each saved draft or published update.

The display indicates what has changed in each revision. at the style book, or did I miss this?
A3: The revisions show changes for all of styles, including changes made when viewing the style book.

A4: For more information, read the overview on comparing patterns template parts, and reusable blocks (now synced patterns.)
Q5: For classic themes, will it be possible to access the pattern editor? Either directly or indirectly?
A5: Classic themes can create patterns, and the reusable blockBlockBlock 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. management screen is reused to store them. More info on the Patterns section, specifically in the Site Editor being exposed for Classic Themes here in this GitHub issue. Great spot to share feedback!
Q6: There are no revisions in the style book, or did I miss this?
A6: The revisions show changes for all of styles, including changes made when viewing the style book.
Q7: Are footnotes finalized, and will they be released in WP 6.3?
A7: Yes, they will.
Q8: Do we have any rough ideas of previewing a theme, working on it, saving that, but NOT activating or scheduling when it goes live
Q9: From my testing, I found that you don’t need to highlight anything to add a footnote number, just place the cursor behind the word where the footnote numbrt should go… Is that a hidden feature or a bugbugA bug is an error or unexpected result. Performance improvements, code optimization, and are considered enhancements, not defects. After feature freeze, only bugs are dealt with, with regressions (adverse changes from the previous version) being the highest priority.?
A9: It’s a feature! Though I find selecting more intuitive.
Q10: Is there any option to apply global styles (theme.jsonJSONJSON, 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. variations) to different templates separately? btw new aspect ratio input is cool!
A10: Not yet, but on the radar. I’d love to be able to apply variations to templates, even patterns. Calling them Theme.json Partials (partially applied theme.json).
Q11: With 6.3, CSSCSSCascading Style Sheets. Grids come to query builder. But what is the plan for CSS grids in the group block (Row, Stack, and Grid)? And will it be a full implementation or a limited one (as the current limited Flexbox implementation in Row features)?
