    I just received an email saying that the new block editor has dozens of beautiful built-in page templates. Can anyone tell me how to access these templates. I cannot figure it out.

    Hi there,

    You’ll see those when you go to create a new page on your site at My Site ->Site ->Pages. At that point you can select from a number of pre-configured layouts, to which you can then add your own content.

    This is a WordPress.com-feature, so you’ll only see it on your WordPress.com site, https://lscaff.wordpress.com/. Additionally, you need to be using the block editor on that site, and you need to be using one of our newer themes. The Able theme you have on that site is retired, and might not support this feature.

    If you want to use this on your Jetpack-connected site, https://stakesandhubs.com/, you’ll need to install the WordPress.com Editing Toolkit plugin. However, that is an experimental plugin that can break at any time, so you use it on a production site at your own risk.
