Not production ready – stay away

    <p>Full site editing is really powerful and promising, but this is not production ready. </p>

    <!– wp:paragraph –>
    <p>So many bugs, features that suddenly disapper with an update, so much functionality that simply isn’t there. With 6.2 Group blocks suddenly lost a lot of functionality for no good reason. </p>

    <!– wp:paragraph –>
    <p>A lot of features (like Typography control for some blocks) are not ready yet. </p>

    <!– wp:paragraph –>
    <p>Though, the main drawback is the missing responsive design options. Twentig (the plugin) fixes some stuff, but without that plugin the theme is useless. </p>

    <p>Basic theme options, like site icon, from Customizer is also hidden for no good reason.</p>

  • Hi @audunmb

    With the Twenty Twenty Two theme or any other FSE theme you can make your site’s logo the site icon in the header template, however, you still have the option to choose a different image as the site icon.

    You can open the header template by going to Appearance > Editor > once you add a logo to the header template you can check it’s settings to make the same image as the site icon or choose a different image as shown below:

    The article below has more information about this:

    Besides the site icon is there something else you are failing to find?

    @thelmachido yes, it’s possible, just very well hidden. Actually, nearly all of the options in Full Site Editing is well hidden. There’s no “Edit templates” in the regular control panel, you have to first click “Edit site”, and then hidden as an option in the top panel there’s “View all templates”.

    This is OK for a beta version, but it’s horrible UI.

    As noted, besides the site icon, there are simply a lot of options missing. The main drawback is the lack of responsive options. For example:

    * I can’t show my website slogan in desktop header and hide it on mobile (yes, you can do this with CSS but you shouldn’t have to. )

    * I can use a hamburger menu (not recommended if you want people to click on the things in the menu), but I can’t have an actual mobile-adapted menu (with only the most relevant items and a “more”/hamburger button).

    * For some reason, you can’t create a navigation block which shows all the submenu items by default. This is regular behaviour in footer menus.

    Hi @audunmb

    I see what you mean there, these are all great suggestions and I would encourage you to move this to Github where feature requests are :

    Sorry, I have no idea how to add feature requests there. I’ve tried before and they get deleted for being in the wrong place or being similar to some other issue. Figuring out the structure of that thing is a day’s work.

    If you figured it out, feel free to add the suggestions as feature requests.

    Hi @audunmb,

    I have created the suggestions here: https://github.com/Automattic/themes/issues/6398
