You will need to click anywhere on the block to activate it and then hover over its symbol
My question about that is what do I need to click on to be able to move a block by hovering on the block and holding the mouse button down and move the block? If I can move the block using the mouse where do I click on the block to move it?
You can also do this without a heading at the top of the page, but then you’ll need to switch to the HTML view of the editor and add an empty div with the ID at the top:
<div id=”top”> </div>
Do I need to switch from classic to block editor to be able to add the above HTML on each of my pages and posts? Do I add any words between either of the ><?
I was able to add this HTML using the classic editor on my websites worth looking at page so that I didn’t have the word Top at the top of my page. How do I change the color of the button that says top and the background of that color I am able to change the colors but am unable to keep those colors when I update the page.
If you want to do this on multiple pages, it’s best to use a unique ID for each page, e.g. tophome, topcontact, etc.
For me to do the above do I need to switch from classic to block editor if I can use the block editor how do I do so?

Please follow the instructions that staff-mckluskey provided in their reply. They have a nice screencast showing how moving a block works.

No, you can do it from the Classic editor.
Do I add any words between either of the ><?
No. That’s why they said to add an empty div tag.

Here’s how to change that button’s color:

It’s best to stick with the Block editor as that’s how you can create the buttons.
Also, what’s the site you’re working on? I can’t seem to find those back to top buttons anywhere on brainbombsandchronicpain.wordpress.com.

So far this is the only page I have a top button on.
https://brainbombsandchronicpain.wordpress.com/websites-worth-a-look-2/I am able to get the top button to work but it does not go to the top of the page. The top button goes to below the image of the page. I am not able to put HTML code above the page title.

Do I use the classic editor to put the HTML code and then used the block editor to create the button? If I use the block editor I get the word top at the top of the page. I have only been able to use the HTML code to not have the word top at the page top.
Thanks.

That is correct. It will jump up to the point where you added the target ID. It’s not possible to jump to the very top, as that would require you being able to add a target ID to the theme’s HTML itself.

I don’t understand what you’re saying here.
You can’t use both the classic and the block editor for the same post/page.
As I explained in my earlier reply on this thread, you need to add a heading to the top of the page, and add the target ID there. If you get the word “Top” at the top of the page, it’s because you added it there. You shouldn’t use “Top” for the actual heading. You only add that as the target ID in the heading block settings.
Or else use the HTML block and add
<div id="top"> </div>. Doing that will not display anything in the published post, as it’s an empty div tag. It’s just added to provide the target ID. -

I used the classic editor to insert the HTML. When I go to edit https://brainbombsandchronicpain.wordpress.com/websitestolearnfrom/ it shows the word classic at the top of the page. I did not know I was unable to use both for the same page. Please tell me how to provide a screenshot if you need me to do so.

I don’t understand what you mean by adding a heading. Will doing that show a heading twice?
Is the heading you are telling me to add different than the headings I currently have on my posts and pages?Thanks.

I was able to add a page jump to all my pages and posts. When I tried to move the top button to the right or left I was unable to do so. I was unable to click on < and > to try to move the button.
When I went to the site the color of the button I wanted being different than when I previewed it. I wanted to have a green text and green outline but the site shows a white outline and text.
Please tell me how to correct these.
Thanks.

To alight the button to the left, right, or center, you need to select the whole Buttons block and click on the alignment icon.
You need to click on the space surrounding the button for the block’s settings to be revealed.

This is the color I see on most of the buttons on your site.
Please follow the instructions below to adjust the color of the button to your liking:

The button color that you showed is not the color I want.
The button color that I see is a grey background with black letters and black border. These are the colors I see when I view my blog.
The color I want the button to be is a grey background with a blue border and blue text. These are the colors I see when I preview my pages and posts when I am looking in the editor.
I don’t know how to insert an image on these posts. I you tell me how I will send an image for you to see.
Thanks.

The grey button and black letters also are the colors that show on my phone and also a friend’s phone.

I can see what you’re speaking of, and it looks like it’s a bug with the button block and your theme – on some themes the button just shows the default colors of the theme, regardless of the settings selected in the editor.
Our developers are investigating it, but for now the only way to fix it is by adding custom CSS on our Premium Plan.

I was able to change the button and text color of the button on one of my pages the page with Ferrari in the title. Maybe those colors don’t have the bug the others do.
Thanks for the help.
