Common Blocks

Blocks are the components for adding content in the WordPress block editor. There are many different block types available for you to use. Here is the complete list of the available blocks.

1. Typography

The Paragraph Block is the default block type for text added to the editor. It is probably the block you will use most. Headings can help structure your page and make your content more readable by humans as well as search engines.

2. Separators and Spacers

If you would like to separate two blocks of content by a line, the Separator block is what you are looking for.

To design is much more than simply to assemble, to order, or even to edit: it is to add value and meaning, to illuminate, to simplify, to clarify, to modify, to dignify, to dramatize, to persuade, and perhaps even to amuse. To design is to transform prose into poetry.”

–Paul Rand

“Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations.”

–Steve Jobs

5. Tables

The Table Block allows you to easily create a table in any post or page.

6. Buttons

Use the Buttons block to prompt visitors to take action with a button-style link. Your button can link to other pages on your site or an external page. It’s great for calling attention to the most important thing you want your visitors to do.
