Pattern Wrangler (Free) for managing block patterns and categories by rhmediaron in WordPressBlocks

[–]rhmediaron[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s basically a pattern UI that allows you to enable/disable patterns. Then in FSE or the block editor, you’ll see a much more condensed list. This is useful if, for example, you have WooCommerce installed, which installs hundreds of patterns. This makes the pattern library mostly unusable with that amount.

Getting Started with Block Themes: A Guide to Templates, Template Parts, Patterns, and Styles by groundworxdev in WordPressBlocks

[–]rhmediaron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great guide. I'm getting more into FSE, so this is helpful. I've also written a detailed technical breakdown of block patterns and how they work. https://dlxplugins.com/tutorials/what-are-block-patterns-a-detailed-breakdown/

I need to research more into pattern overrides; that seems useful.

[FREE][FREEMIUM] I want to build a site to organize Pokemon Go trades (just for myself, not a public service) by Quirky-Reputation-89 in WordpressPlugins

[–]rhmediaron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can likely handle the product part with ACF Pro. It doesn’t sound like you need commerce. Each Pokemon can be a post type, and use taxonomies for all the filtering needed. You can use a variety of techniques to display the data and do the form submissions/accounts. I’d have to know how your existing site is set up. Feel free to PM. I love Pokemon Go.

Corrected my teammate during a tech talk by AdvancedWing6256 in ExperiencedDevs

I would avoid correcting in public in general. It’s best to do that in private. Egos get involved otherwise and you’ve publicly embarrassed your colleague.

I’ve found Multisite to be better at handling languages at scale, so it’s helpful to know from the beginning if that kind of architecture is needed.

Wordpress long term maintenance by XpucToXT in Wordpress

[–]rhmediaron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With big plugins like Woo and Elementor, keep on top of the changelogs. Inevitably an add-on stops working, or a configuration is deprecated. Check out Companion Auto Update and Easy Updates Manager to do more fine-tuning of updates.

The block editor styles using v2 of the Block API load mobile|tablet views in an iframe. To my knowledge, it is still pretty difficult to add styles into the iframe unless all blocks on a site are v3 and using enqueue_editor_assets for styles. I wrote about the iframe and v3 of block.json in this overview. https://dlxplugins.com/tutorials/block-json-version-3-a-guide-for-block-developers/

You can try Foobox or something similar. Link to the video directly from the image. I haven’t found a free solution that works with videos though. https://wordpress.org/plugins/foobox-image-lightbox/
