Changing theme but keeping gutenberg blocks

  • Hi there,

    I would like to change my theme, but every time I try, my original blocks turn into 1 block and the layout becomes narrow. Nothing I do allows me to make the one block full width, nor can I keep the blocks separate when I try another theme.

    Is there a way around this?

    Thanks,
    Inez

  • Themes in the WP repository are not allowed to provide blocks. Looking at the source of your page, though, you are using core blocks, most of which have the wide class on them.
    The blocks are not “1 block”, but not all themes style blocks distinctly, since it’s simply HTML.
    Not all themes support the wide class, since it is difficult to do with a sidebar or some layouts that themes typically have.
    There is a tag in the themes repository for “wide blocks” class support. You can find it in the feature filter.

    The theme I am wanting to change to does support full width as I have used it on another site.

    The blocks are separate in my current theme, but merge when I change themes which makes it more work to edit the separate elements of the page. Actually it means copying every block into new separate blocks. I am trying to find ways to avoid having to do this.
