  In the past I have been able to indent text quite easily, but now, with this ‘block’ stuff, I cannot figure out how to do it.

  Hi David

  I don’t believe that there is an indent option in the standard Paragraph block (unless you’re happy to use the ‘Edit as HTML’ route).

  One option might be to use a Classic block as described here: https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/classic-block/

  Good luck!

  Thanks, mikeywil. This seems like a step backwards for wordpress, and is ruining the presentation of my work at the moment.

  Hi there,

  Currently there aren’t indent options, no, but the WordPress.org team who makes the block editor are actively working on it.

  You’re welcome to follow along in https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/14554 – as soon as this change is shipped in the Gutenberg plugin, it should become available on WordPress.com as well.
