What WordPress’ Gutenberg Update Means for You
If you’re running your blog on WordPress, chances are you’ve heard of Gutenberg. Gutenberg is WordPress’ new WYSIWYG post editor, and it’ll be a part of WordPress core before we know it.
But will this new way of editing impact you and your posts? You betcha. And Raquel is here to talk all about what you can expect once Gutenberg is live on your site.
Between setting up a staging site to test your plugins to understanding what blocks are, this episode will get you prepared for the Gutenberg release later this year!
In this episode, Raquel shares:
- Why version 1.6.0 is an important update for Tasty Recipes
- What a CMS is and what open-source means
- Why people self-hosted WordPress sites are beneficial
- What Gutenberg is
- What blocks are
- When we should expect to see Gutenberg
- How you can prepare for Gutenberg
