  Hello, I have a free website on wordpress – xxxxxx.wordpress.com (just an example). When I try to write something using visual edit option in paragraph form of text block in my blog post, the advanced option in block settings (that appear on the right hand side) is visible. But when I write something using HTML codes, that advanced option disappears. Why is it so? Also, I want to know how can I put border over a paragraph form of text block. I tried all the methods suggested in various forums, but nothing worked.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there!

  Can you explain a little more? What exact blocks are you using?
  If I write on a Paragraph Block I can see the advanced option for both visual and HTML views. HTML block simply doesn’t offer that option.

  I want to know how can I put border over a paragraph form of text block.

  You can try adding an inline styling if you edit the paragraph block as HTML, right after p, you can add, for example style="border-style:solid; border-width:2px;" where you can modify both the style and width of the border.

  So, the whole paragraph will look like this:
  <p style="border-style:solid; border-width:2px;">Your text here</p>

  I hope that helps :)
