WordPress 6.0 Block Editor ISSUES

    Guys,

    I don’t know what to do. After the latest WordPress 6.0 release, the only site I manage that has the Block Editor is an absolute disaster.

    I use Enfold and their support has been underwhelming regarding this issue. But I see many more issues with two column blocks with background and padding.

    Here’s their reply (after several iterations where they claimed not to be able to reproduce the issue, but they did):

    “`If you check the block editor CSS specificity here: https://polypane.app/css-specificity-calculator/, then you will see that is has a specificity of 0,0,0, which is the lowest possible. The theme CSS which is applying it has a specificity of 0,0,1, just slightly higher. The CSS on your live site:

    .wp-block-columns:where(.has-background)

    Has a specificity score of 0,1,0, which would explain why it is trumping the theme styling. It seems to me that this is intentional, maybe because theme styling should apply, if any is available. I would advice that you try to post this question on a general WordPress help forum and ask why the specificity of the CSS in question is so low.`”

    If you look at the site’s posts on a mobile device, you will see that either there are no breakpoints on two columns or the new pre-created blocks with color background from Gutenberg do not work properly.

    Here’s the link to the Enfold support ticket: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-css-overriding-block-editors-css/#post-1354733

    I did disable all plugins and switched to twenty20 and the issue was not there but Enfold support insists this is a WordPress issue and not their issue.

    Help, please.

    Thank you in advance.

    PS: They did mention at the end of the support thread that The padding setting is not available when Enfold is the active theme, so maybe they should consider bringing it up to their development theme. I’d say of course they should and they should have identified this much earlier in the game. 13 interactions over 4 days is too much for a support ticket where I did most of the troubleshooting.

    If you look at the site’s posts on a mobile device, you will see that either there are no breakpoints on two columns or

    Mobile compatibility is theme dependent.

    I use Enfold

    Since you use a commercial theme and need support, please go to their official support channel. In order to be good stewards of the WordPress community, and encourage innovation and progress, we feel it’s important to direct people to those official locations.

    Forum volunteers are also not given access to commercial products, so they would not know why your commercial theme or plugin is not working properly. This is one other reason why volunteers forward you to the commercial product’s vendors. The vendors are responsible for supporting their commercial product.

    Commercial products are not supported in these forums.

    If you see the link I shared, that’s where I went first. They are asking ME to come here and fight their fight.

    I copied what their response was. I will share your response with them.

    I shouldn’t be doing this either. And I SHOULD not be scalded for someone else’s development responsibility and I agree. The problem in in the theme.

    The problem was not just showing up on mobile. It was WordPress 6.0 that changed the behavior of the CSS with the Block Editor. I had to rebuild the block and add an additional Block around both side by side blocks.

    Personally, I don’t appreciate these changes that make ME rebuild the site. I don’t like the Gutenberg editor. It is not professional-looking and it’s much harder to work with.
