    Gutenberg: Columns

    2 columns

    This is a 2-column layout, just trying some things out to see how it goes. Each column should have enough padding to breathe a little bit. Don’t forget to consider how columns will look on smaller screens. #mobilefirst

    3 columns

    This is a typical 3-column layout with images on top and some text below.

    You’ll find this layout on web sites all over the internet.

    Gutenberg makes this kind of layout easy to build. The future is now!

    4 columns

    This is the first column, and it’s amazing.

    This is the second column, and it’s also amazing.

    The third column, as they say, is like a charm.

    This is the fourth column, and it’s possibly the best.

    5 columns

    5 columns of text in the post, 5 columns of text. Take one down, move it around, 4 columns of text in the post.

    4 columns of text in the post, 4 columns of text. Take one down, move it around, 3 columns of text in the post.

    3 columns of text in the post, 3 columns of text. Take one down, move it around, 2 columns of text in the post.

    2 columns of text in the post, 2 columns of text. Take one down, move it around, 1 columns of text in the post.

    1 column of text in the post, 1 column of text. Take one down, move it around, no columns of text in the post.

    About Automattic

    We are the people behind WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Jetpack, Simplenote, Longreads, VaultPress, Akismet, Gravatar, Polldaddy, Cloudup, and more. We believe in making the web a better place.

    We’re a distributed company with 807 Automatticians in 69 countries speaking 84 different languages. Our common goal is to democratize publishing so that anyone with a story can tell it, regardless of income, gender, politics, language, or where they live in the world.

    We believe in Open Source and the vast majority of our work is available under the GPL.

    We strive to live by the Automattic Creed.

    Come work with us.

    Our Creed

    I will never stop learning. I won’t just work on things that are assigned to me. I know there’s no such thing as a status quo. I will build our business sustainably through passionate and loyal customers. I will never pass up an opportunity to help out a colleague, and I’ll remember the days before I knew everything. I am more motivated by impact than money, and I know that Open Source is one of the most powerful ideas of our generation. I will communicate as much as possible, because it’s the oxygen of a distributed company. I am in a marathon, not a sprint, and no matter how far away the goal is, the only way to get there is by putting one foot in front of another every day. Given time, there is no problem that’s insurmountable.

    Blockquotes

    Single line blockquote:

    Stay hungry. Stay foolish.

    Multi line blockquote with a cite reference:

    People think focus means saying yes to the thing you’ve got to focus on. But that’s not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to pick carefully. I’m actually as proud of the things we haven’t done as the things I have done. Innovation is saying no to 1,000 things.

    Do. Or do not. There is no try.

  • Gutenberg: Image Alignment

    Welcome to image alignment! The best way to demonstrate the ebb and flow of the various image positioning options is to nestle them snuggly among an ocean of words. Grab a paddle and let’s get started.

    On the topic of alignment, it should be noted that users can choose from the options of None, Left, Right, and Center. In addition, they also get the options of Thumbnail, Medium, Large & Fullsize.

    The image above happens to be centered.

    The rest of this paragraph is filler for the sake of seeing the text wrap around the 150×150 image, which is left aligned.

    As you can see the should be some space above, below, and to the right of the image. The text should not be creeping on the image. Creeping is just not right. Images need breathing room too. Let them speak like you words. Let them do their jobs without any hassle from the text. In about one more sentence here, we’ll see that the text moves from the right of the image down below the image in seamless transition. Again, letting the do it’s thang. Mission accomplished!

    And now for a massively large image. It also has no alignment.

    The image above, though 1200px wide, should not overflow the content area. It should remain contained with no visible disruption to the flow of content.

    And now we’re going to shift things to the right align. Again, there should be plenty of room above, below, and to the left of the image. Just look at him there… Hey guy! Way to rock that right side. I don’t care what the left aligned image says, you look great. Don’t let anyone else tell you differently.

    In just a bit here, you should see the text start to wrap below the right aligned image and settle in nicely. There should still be plenty of room and everything should be sitting pretty. Yeah… Just like that. It never felt so good to be right.

    The following image is wide (if the theme supports it, that is). If not, who knows what will happen!

    What’s that? You wanted to see a full-width image block? Well then feast your eyes on the following.

    There’s something missing! But don’t worry, we’ve got the cover image blocks… covered.

    This is a regular cover image.

    This is a wide cover image.

    This is a full-width cover image.

    And just when you thought we were done, we’re going to do them all over again with captions!

    Look at 580×300 getting some caption love.

    The image above happens to be centered. The caption also has a link in it, just to see if it does anything funky.

    Itty-bitty caption

    The rest of this paragraph is filler for the sake of seeing the text wrap around the 150×150 image, which is left aligned.

    As you can see the should be some space above, below, and to the right of the image. The text should not be creeping on the image. Creeping is just not right. Images need breathing room too. Let them speak like you words. Let them do their jobs without any hassle from the text. In about one more sentence here, we’ll see that the text moves from the right of the image down below the image in seamless transition. Again, letting the do it’s thang. Mission accomplished!

    And now for a massively large image. It also has no alignment.

    Massive image comment for your eyeballs.

    The image above, though 1200px wide, should not overflow the content area. It should remain contained with no visible disruption to the flow of content.

    Feels good to be right all the time.

    And now we’re going to shift things to the right align. Again, there should be plenty of room above, below, and to the left of the image. Just look at him there… Hey guy! Way to rock that right side. I don’t care what the left aligned image says, you look great. Don’t let anyone else tell you differently.

    In just a bit here, you should see the text start to wrap below the right aligned image and settle in nicely. There should still be plenty of room and everything should be sitting pretty. Yeah… Just like that. It never felt so good to be right.

    We’re gonna take one more trip down cover image lane.

    The unicorn is a legendary creature that has been described since antiquity as a beast with a single large, pointed, spiraling horn projecting from it’s forehead. In European folklore, the unicorn is often depicted as a white horse-like or goat-like animal with a long horn and clove hooves.

    In the Middle Ages and Renaissance, it was commonly described as an extremely wild woodland creature, a symbol of purity and grace, which could be captured only by a virgin.

    This wide cover image background is fixed.

    And that’s a wrap, yo! You survived the tumultuous waters of alignment. Image alignment achievement unlocked!
