  Do any themes have support Gutenberg’s full width blocks yet?

  And yes I know Gutenberg is still in beta.

  Hi there, I’d suggest contacting Staff directly with this question as it looks like your site’s nameservers are pointing to WordPressdotcom. That means you have an upgrade and are eligible for direct support when posting in your site’s dashboard at https://wordpress.com/help/contact

  If by any chance you are on the Business plan upgrade and were directed to post in the support forums, you’ll want to ask this question over at the support forums on ORG https://wordpress.org/support as they have much more experience with 3rd party themes and the Gutenberg project than we do here. If you don’t have a username on the ORG forums you can register one on that page.

  The reason I was asking here is that I know a lot of themes are made 3rd parties and not Automattic staff. I was hoping to hear from of them and what they doing with Gutenberg.

  I’d like to start building sites with themes that I know will support Gutenberg. I don’t want to find out in a few months some of the themes I’ve been using for my clients won’t be get support for Gutenberg.

  Unless you are on top plan, you have to use themes provided by wordpress.com. So it matters what going to happen with those themes.

  Hi gnetlive,

  Unless you are on top plan, you have to use themes provided by wordpress.com. So it matters what going to happen with those themes.

  We are currently working on integrating Gutenberg with the WordPress.com themes we offer. However, I don’t have an exact timeframe for that just yet.

  Gutenberg is first aimed for inclusion in WordPress 5.0, so you can expect it to be after that point. But more information is available here:

  As @justjennifer mentioned, questions about using Gutenberg for self hosted WordPress.org sites can be posted to these forums:

  Thanks for your help @justjennifer!
