Block Setting Support
The following tables are lists of global and block specific settings that have been turned off in ModernPress. These settings have been targeted to silo editors into using predefined settings and style (e.g. the Button block) instead of overriding key design system components.
| Setting Category | Settings Disabled | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Color |
customDuotone, defaultGradients, defaultPalette, defaultDuotone, duotone
|
Duotone just doesn't have a place in ModernPress right now. The default gradients and palette don't fit most brands, so we define our own. |
| Typography |
defaultFontSizes, fluid
|
Default font sizes don't match brand. We define our own fluid type scale. |
| Shadow | defaultPresets |
We define our own shadows. |
| Spacing | defaultSpacingSizes |
We define our own spacing scale. |
| Block Name | Settings Disabled | Reason |
|---|---|---|
core/button |
border/color, border/radius, border/style, border/width, color/text, color/background, color/gradients, shadow, spacing/padding, typography/fontFamilies, typography/customFontSize, typography/fontSizes, typography/textTransform, typography/fontWeight, typography/fontStyle, typography/lineHeight, typography/letterSpacing, typography/textDecoration
|
The Button block is one of the few blocks very opinionated in its styling - we don't want these styles edited. |
core/group |
color/button, color/link
|
The Group block handles color theming for these elements. While we're keeping the options for paragraph and heading colors, links and buttons just don't make sense here. |
core/post-template |
spacing/blockGap |
The spacing between items in the Post Template block is overwritten in the theme for both list and grid views. The blockGap control doesn't end up affecting styling in any way due to how specific the selectors are. There's no reason for this setting to be on. |
core/query-pagination |
color/link, color/text
|
Query Pagination block defines color settings based on the current Group block theme selected. |
core/table |
color/background, color/text
|
Table block defines color settings based on the current Group block theme selected. This is especially important for when the "Stripes" block style is selected. |
