Does indent still exist?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello!

    In the block editor, I cannot find the system to indent the text of a § (which existed in the classic editor, with a double icon, one to the left, one to the right).

    What can I do to indent my §?

    Thanks for your help!

    P.S. My question concerns all my blogs, not only the one I mentioned.

    Hello!

    In the classic editor, it was easy to select a standard colour from an icon, which offered +/- 30 standard colours + the option of a personalized colour.

    In the block editor, I have the choice between:
    * one of 5-6 “harmonized” colours (which are not my previous choices)
    * create a personalized colour: I then need to note the #code, to keep it if I want to reuse it later.

    Is there any option to have a larger panel of standard colours back?

    Thanks for your help!

    P.S. I mentioned one blog’s name, but the problem is the same for all blogs.

    Hello!

    In the classic editor, there was an icon with the possibility of inserting symbols, like © and letters with accent.

    I cannot find this option in the block editor: do you intend to add it?

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi there!

    The standard block editor doesn’t have the increase/decrease indent options. However, this is a perfect example where you’d want to use the Classic Block.

    The Classic Block has all the same editor options you’re used to – including the increase/decrease indent buttons. You can read more about this block and how to use it here:

    https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/classic-block/

    Let us know if you have any trouble with that block and we’ll be happy to help. :)

    @dreusdeille – also, you don’t need to open three different threads for your questions; you can ask them all in the same thread. I’ve merged the other two threads into this one.

    For all your questions – the Classic Block is what you’ll want to use to get that functionality you’re used to.

    Also, since you have a Personal plan, you do have access to direct email support here:

    I hope that helps!

    Thanks for your help, I’ll try to remember those tips (merge questions) and contact you through https://wordpress.com/help/contact

    And thanks for the Classic block… never thought about it!
