Tiled Gallery does not exist or work in Block Editor

    I tried editing a post with a tiled gallery in the Block Editor. There is simply no Tiled Gallery support or option anywhere. I read the post:

    https://jetpack.com/support/jetpack-blocks/tiled-gallery-block/

    and even installed the recommended plugin in that post and refreshed the editor tab to make sure. But I cannot find any Tied Gallery option under the current block, nor can I find it under the JetPack options if I try to insert a new block.

    I use the Genesis Framework with Studio Pro child theme. All the plugins and the core are up to date. I did not try disabling any plugins or switching the theme as editing in the Block Editor is not a high priority issue for me yet. It is conceivable that either JetPack or Gutenberg or both may need a look as well.

    I am back to square one! The reply I got from JP support repeats the first reply I got here, that tiled galleries requires JP CDN be activated. This is simply not true as I have been using them without activating the CDN as tiled galleries use the Photon accelerator even when it is not activated. I have many posts with tiled galleries and I do not have the JetPack CFN active. It is possible that the WP team decided to make this mandatory in the block editor. If this is indeed the case, it will be a good idea to declare it so we don’t chase solutions, report bugs, and take your time.

    Thanks,

    Hi Cemal,

    Please continue following up in the ticket as this will help to keep your support in one place. If you reply to them with a link to this thread, they can look at the options we have already explored with you and this should avoid duplication.

    Thanks!

    I did. I thought I would mention the reply here so other users may follow the progress. I will send another message with this thread in it, thank you for the suggestion.

    In case any other users may be following this thread, I heard from JetPack support. They informed me that using the JetPack CDN for all the images is now a requirement in the block editor. My response is below:

    That is unfortunate that the WordPress team chose to force the CDN on the users in order to insert tiled galleries in the block editor! I knew the CDN was used by tiled galleries but forcing it on the users for every image just to use tiled galleries is unfortunate. I will search for alternatives if I have to use the block editor. For the time being, I am fine with the classic editor which also allows me to use tiled galleries.

    Thank you for clarifying this,

    Cemal
