It’s really very good – make sure you test it yourself

  • I have to say that I shared the other reviewers’ disappointment with Gutenberg

    Whether it’s changed enormously since launch I don’t know, but it’s actually fine, far more flexible and with far more features than Classic.

    We’re a busy news brand and it takes no longer than before to publish posts – and far more items like blockquotes, images inline and left and right are all quickly dealt with. Classic Editor can still be activated for those who have a learning curve and it can be pinned to their sign-on account.

    It’s just fine

    @wbwired thanks for your review. It’s great to see it being used for a busy news brand. What feature would you love to see?

    Well having downloaded a few plugins for Gutenberg – some have a timeline block, to use for a set of dates in a history for example – they have animated bars which run down the ‘times’ which look great

    What would be amazing would be a variation on this where a news brand could operate a live blog – for example some breaking news incidents are worth running a ‘live updates’ post for.

    It just needs time and date and a ‘paragraph’ for each step of update, allow embeds – and preferably a reversible switch ( start at current entry or first entry )

    24liveblog is the best way at the moment to operate these, it’s paid and expensive – I wonder if it could simply be translated to a Gutenberg solution as time moves on

    Thanks for asking!
    Pat
