How to correctly use library blocks with GeneratePress
4 replies · Started by cpalo on June 1, 2021
Each library blocks has its columns, grid, row, advanced columns, etc ...
I use getwid, stackable, gutenberg, kadence and gutentor.
Is the best way to systematically use generate blocks and only insert library blocks without using their rows and grids?
Hi there,
This really depends on your needs, I believe each block has its own advantage and disadvantage, you can choose the block which suits your need the best when you build a page.
I've never used blocks other than GB and WP blocks personally, I found GB free version satisfies 95% of my design needs, with GB pro and CSS I can basically create everything I'm thinking of.
Please be aware that GB is the best choice if you are trying to use Block element, some other blocks may not have very good compatibility with GP's block element.
Hope that's helpful!
You therefore confirm my choice, namely GB for the overall structure.
And I will be careful in the Blocks Elements to avoid inserting Blocks from a Library.
When you say WP Blocks are you talking about the basic Wordpress blocks?
Exactly to customize them, is it possible to add an external stylesheet that I will call by functions.php via a snippet?
When you say WP Blocks are you talking about the basic WordPress blocks?
Yes, but since GB is out, I rarely use WP blocks, sometimes I use its image block/video block/search block.
I found there're too few options to customize the WP block, have to write CSS all the time.
I don't think an external stylesheet is needed, unless you are writing thousands lines of CSS :)
Fully agree.
I was talking about an external sheet to possibly customize the WP Blocks.
cordially
