July 26, 2023 — Styling blocks: empowering users with CSS custom properties

It’s important not to be too prescriptive when developing blocks, and to allow users to have as much control as possible over the look and feel of the blocks on their websites.

In this edition of WordPress Developer Hours we talk about CSS custom properties (also known as CSS variables) and look at how you can leverage them in blocks to give users more control over the styling and presentation of their sites.

First up, Michael Burridge presents a solution to a common problem, i.e. how to allow users to have control over the styling of inner elements in blocks which have complex markup. While it’s relatively simple to allow users to style a block at the root level, this presentation looks at how you can assign the values stored in block attributes to CSS custom properties and use them to apply user-defined styling to child-elements in both static and dynamic blocks.

Then, for the second presentation of the session, Justin Tadlock shows you how to integrate CSS custom properties into your block stylesheets that play nicely with themes. The technique used integrates block plugins and theme.json while still giving preference to user choice.

Whether you’re just starting out with block development or have built dozens of blocks already, this WordPress Developer Hours session is for you, and you’re sure to learn a ton.

November 26, 2021 — Za 15 let v oboru jsem zažil WordPress na malinkých webech i na stránkách s návštěvností nad 100.000 lidí denně. V manGowebu jsme takové weby provozovali (a stále provozujeme), dělali jsme desítky složitých datových migrací a odnesli si z toho bezpočet šrámů a příběhů. Některé z nich s vámi chci sdílet. A i na jejich základě se pokusit formulovat, kdy je WordPress to správné “kladivo” a kdy naopak může dávat smysl jiný nástroj.
