This release brings visual change tracking to in-editor revisionsRevisions<\/span> The WordPress revisions system stores a record of each saved draft or published update. The revision system allows you to see what changes were made in each revision by dragging a slider (or using the Next\/Previous buttons). The display indicates what has changed in each revision.<\/span><\/span><\/span> and introduces a brand-new Icon blockBlock<\/span> 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.<\/span><\/span><\/span>. The navigation overlay and client-side media processing both graduate from experimental status. Real-time collaboration adds cursor awareness and can now be enabled through a global settings toggle, and the Gallery block now supports lightbox navigation between images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
