Disgutenberged

I have coined the verb ‘to disgutenberg’ and I have Disgutenberged this site temporarily. To disgutenberg means to remove or suspend Gutenberg as the editor in a WordPress site.

Meanwhile, here are some crowds in Vienna. None of the people here are looking for Gutenberg.

    They probably have a lot of wrinkles to iron out 🙂

    I need to try it more, in my Publisher theme, before I make up my mind.

    In this theme; the little graphic/separator underneath the blog title interferes with the words … at least on my screen.

    1. Not sure what you are seeing. On Independent Publisher I can’t see a separator?
      Have you left feedback?

      JenT recommended that I go to the Support forum for the Rosalie theme that I am using on Photographworks.me. Did that and waiting to hear back.
      I googled for how to make a theme Gutenberg ready and it doesn’t look too complicated for a theme developer to do, haha.

        No, I meant on your theme; Rosalie. The yellowish-brown separator interferes with the lowercase p in the blog title. Nothing to do with Gutenberg — it did that before.

        Now I’ll go and try my old theme and see how that will work … 😊

        1. Ah yes. The designer must not have tried to use a letter that falls below the line. I added a bit of CSS to correct it. I hate doing that because you never know when it will alter something else not so obvious and cause problems.

    Lol, to “disgutenberg” is my new favourite word! So far, I’ve only had trouble with Gutenberg, it’s half-baked. I always ended up in HTML, editing things with code anyway. I don’t think it’s intended to be used by people who know some code and have an accurate idea of what they want to achieve. Oh and in case you wonder, I don’t have Gutenberg available on my WP-hosted blog, I experiment with it on self-hosted sites for work.

    1. As a method of working, it falls between two stools. It is more confusing for newbie’s I think. For people more used to the workings, it is just a pain and slower than the old way. I am starting to feel more positive on the self-hosted site where I am using it because there are people making some clever blocks (pricing tables for example).

        I abandoned experimenting with Gutenberg now. I had to start using the paid Divi Builder, which is Gutenberg on steroids, so I don’t need to bother with Gutenberg on top of it…

        1. I wonder whether Divi and Gutenberg will play well together?

          Nope. They’re hostile. It’s enough mess with the WP editor clashing with the Divi editor. Add Gutenberg on top of it and it’s a riot… At least that’s my initial experience.

        3. That’s what I thought might be the case. I don’t know what I am going to do when Gutenberg gets put into core. There is always the Ramp plugin from Automattic to disable/enable Gutenberg selectively.
