    Hi,

    On the home page of my website, I placed an Enfold “Blog Posts” Element.

    The posts themselves are created using the wordpress Gutenberg Editor. I want them to be displayed full length, which as far as I know leaves me with 2 options: Classical or Gutenberg.

    In one blog post I tried using the color options of a paragraph block to make it appear highlighted. Alas, if I look at the page, no highlighting is rendered. the paragraph has the css class rendered into the source code:
    <p class="has-background has-col-919191-background-color"><strong>my very important text</strong></p>
    but it does not affect the rendering. What can I do to enable the (not very tech-savvy) editors to use gutenberg color settings?

    Hi Andreas

    Could you please post the URL here so I can see which Gutenberg block you would like to address with your CSS tweaks?

    Cheers

    Hi, Michael,

    Sure can. It‘s https://beton-heller.de/2019/11/30/oeffnungszeiten-und-winterurlaub-2019-2020/. Second paragraph starting with „bitte beachten Sie…“ Thanks!

    Hi Andi

    It seems you don’t have a background color defined to your class (at least I can’t see one in the browser inspector tools)
    has-background has-col-919191-background-color

    Which background color would you like to use for that red font?

    Best,
    Michael

    Hi, Michael,

    thanks for your time. So that means Gutenberg provides me with a selection of colors for the text and the background of paragraph blocks. Even displays it alright in the edit view but when it comes to publishing the post I need to provide my own custom css for whatever color option I am using?

    edit view of post
    live view of post

    <p class="has-background has-col-919191-background-color"><strong>Deep, meaningful text goes here...</strong></p> provides me with custom css attributes which even has the color hex value in the attribute, but I need to style it myself via custom css? Sounds a bit… wonky. Is that really how block attributes work?

    Thanks again,

    Andy

    Hi Andi

    Ah I see. As it looks correct in the backend preview, it is very likely a caching issue.

    Please empty your browser cache and the cache generated by a plugin (in case you are using one).
    This should do the trick.

    Best,
    Michael

    Hi, Michael,

    that’s what I suspected right after seeing the problem, however it doesn’t solve the issue.

    As you correctly stated above, there is no css class defined for has-background has-col-919191-background-color. And I thought it was the theme developers responsibility to provide the user with according css styling as stated here for example: https://www.billerickson.net/wordpress-color-palette-button-styling-gutenberg/. Theme devs register the color palette and also provide css for the color options, no?

    Knowing the high quality work of kriesi I suspect the problem to be the result of my wrong-doing somewhere along the way, and not kriesi’s fault. But for the life of me I can’t find anything I would do differently.

    Thanks again,

    Andi

    Hi Andi

    Theme devs register the color palette and also provide css for the color options, no?

    I honestly don’t know. Gutenberg itself (without a theme using a separate page editor) works great from my experience. However, there might be some issues when you combine the Advanced Layout Builder from Enfold with Gutenberg.

    Therefore a moderator can give you a better answer than me in this case.

    Cheers

    Hi, Michael,

    Hi,

    I added a better support for Block Editor to Enfold 4.6.4.

    But we probably will not release it before next year as we do not want to bother users with an update shortly before X-mas.

    If you want we have a silent 4.6.4-beta-1 release (see private content) published today with a lot of enhancements and fixes (https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-upcoming-fixes/).

    You can download it, unzip (maybe you need an external zip program like winrar) and upload with ftp to your server.

    Keep a backup of the original files for a fallback.

    Best regards,
    Günter

    After finally being able to test that matter with Enfold 4.7.3 I can state that the background and text color selection works as expected. Thumbs up and thanks so much for fixing this!
