    a new page, create a story post, find other content in the reader….anything you
    can think of!
 2. Set up blogging reminders, and try blogging consistently for a while. Report any
    issues you find, including with blogging reminders themselves!

## Test Setup

   and “Crash reports” options.
 * Go to My Site > Settings > Use 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. Editor to enable the block 
   editor for new posts.

## Where to Report

Please report bugs in GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation
of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers.
Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription.
GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches
by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged by the repository
owner. [https://github.com/](https://github.com/) at [WordPress-Android](https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/WordPress-Android/issues)
or [gutenberg-mobile](https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/gutenberg-mobile/issues)(
for block editor issues) if you are comfortable doing so. Add a comment to this 
post if you have any questions, feedback, or issues you’re not sure how to report.

## Instructions for Reporting Issues

 * Search the GitHub repository first to see if the bug is a known issue. If you
   verify a known issue, please leave a comment noting the app and device info you
   tested with!
 * For new issues, please follow the template GitHub repository that shows up when
   creating a [new issue](https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/WordPress-Android/issues/new).
 * Please be aware that a bot will ask for labels but you may not have rights to
   add them. Know that labels will be added by someone on the triage team.
 * Please do not include full Activity Logs which include tokens. Activity Logs 
   can be very helpful for debugging but you should only include them if you have
   removed tokens as those should not be shared publicly. You can find the logs 
   at Account > Help & Support > Application log.
