resolves #67493

What?

Added styles for Align Right in editor.scss for block themes to resolve the issue where the Avatar component alignment was not working when the "Link to Profile" option was enabled.

Why?

The Align Right feature for the Avatar component was not functioning as expected in block-based themes (e.g., Twenty Twenty-Four, Twenty Twenty-Five) when the "Link to Profile" option was selected. This PR addresses that issue by ensuring that the alignment works correctly across block themes, ensuring consistency with classic themes like Twenty Twenty-One, where it worked fine.

How?

This PR modifies the editor.scss file to explicitly add and enforce styles for the Align Right option in the block editor for Avatar components.

It adds following style snippet.

.wp-block-avatar.alignright {
	.components-resizable-box__container {
		float: right;
	}
}

Testing Instructions

  1. Activate a block-based theme, e.g., Twenty Twenty-Four or Twenty Twenty-Five.
  2. Add the Avatar component to a post or page using the block editor.
  3. Enable the "Link to Profile" option in the Avatar component settings.
  4. Set the alignment option to "Align Right".
  5. Save and preview the post/page.
  6. Repeat for classic theme.

Hi! Quickly looking at the output of the Avatar block, it seems that the whole block is wrapped in the link, and the link is not part of the block itself. I think fixing that would be the correct approach. Would you be able to try that?

Hello @ellatrix,
Thank you for your feedback. I’ve addressed the issue you highlighted regarding the wrapper in the editor incorrectly wrapping the block. I’ve implemented the necessary adjustments and would appreciate it if you could review the changes.

I have also reverted the initial commit related to css changes.

Pull Request Overview

This PR fixes the alignment issue for the Avatar component in block-based themes when the "Link to Profile" option is enabled. The fix refactors the code structure to eliminate duplicated conditional rendering patterns.

  • Introduces a reusable AvatarLinkWrapper component to handle link wrapping logic
  • Moves the link wrapper logic inside the ResizableAvatar component instead of conditionally rendering it in multiple places
  • Removes duplicated conditional rendering blocks from both CommentEdit and UserEdit functions

The AvatarLinkWrapper is placed inside the ResizableAvatar component, which means the link wrapper will be inside the resizable container. This could interfere with the CSS float alignment fix mentioned in the PR description, as the float property on .components-resizable-box__container may not work as expected when it's nested inside a link element.

It looks like we dropped the ball in terms of reviews here. Sorry about that.

In my tests this is working great.

Any thoughts @ellatrix
