Hi Ben,

I completely get the point about duplicating content, and a simple background colour with opacity would be more than adequate for overlaying content on image backgrounds.

I’ve purchased ‘Kadence Blocks Pro’ and the Image Overlay/Split content options seem to handle my image background requirements…

Many thanks,

Hi Ben,

Thanks for this answer. It seems overkill to add a column inside a row layout inside a column inside a row layout, but it does indeed work!

Is there any plan to add background colours/images to columns themselves?

Thanks once again…

I completely agree with you regarding ‘no product or feature is created perfect at first’ – so why is this being touted as the new core editor for WordPress 5.0 when it is far from ready. My concern is that as this will have such an impact on the everyday operation of EVERY WordPress site so it MUST be ready for launch – and if that takes ‘6-7 years’ then so be it…

A lot of people feel that the Gutenberg developers are not listening to their comments – hence so many negative reviews. If there was some clarity on how this will impact on existing site upgrades, or at least address the many many concerns that this will be forced on users, then people might have a more positive view of Gutenberg.

I do want to like it, however the implementation approach shows no concern for the user base that has made WordPress what it is.
