    If your question is about domain management, check with your domain registrar or previous web hosting provider, especially if you registered the domain with them. For further help, reach out to your web host’s support, as this isn’t a WordPress-specific issue.

    It looks like you’re having issues with thumbnails displaying horizontally after installing your WordPress theme. This could be due to theme compatibility, CSS conflicts, or incorrect thumbnail settings. To troubleshoot, check your theme documentation for layout configurations, verify the thumbnail sizes under Settings > Media, and inspect the CSS using developer tools for any overriding styles. Additionally, try deactivating recent plugins to see if there are any conflicts. If the problem continues, consider reaching out to the theme developer for further assistance.

    It sounds frustrating to deal with those 404 errors after the plugin update. Since flushing permalinks only provides a temporary fix, it’s possible that the update has introduced a conflict with your CPT or its rewrite rules.

    Here are a few suggestions to troubleshoot:

    1. Check Plugin Conflicts: Disable the recently updated plugin(s) one by one to identify if one of them is causing the issue.
    2. Review Rewrite Rules: Ensure that there are no other rewrite rules that might conflict with your custom slug. You can also try adding the ep_mask parameter in your rewrite settings.
    3. Inspect the .htaccess File: Sometimes, the .htaccess file can cause issues. Ensure it’s writable and properly configured.
    4. Debug Mode: Turn on WordPress debugging to see if there are any error messages that could give you more insight.

    If none of these solutions work, you might want to check if there are any recent updates in the WordPress core that could affect custom post types.

    Hope this helps!

    When developing a WordPress plugin, there are best practices to ensure maintainability, compatibility, and performance when it comes to storing and applying formatting (CSS). Let’s go through the options you mentioned and consider the best practices:1. Storing CSS in a Separate File (Recommended):

    • Best Practice: The ideal method is to store the CSS in a separate file located within your plugin folder (e.g., /wp-content/plugins/your-plugin/css/style.css). This approach keeps the structure organized, separates concerns (HTML, CSS, and PHP), and ensures easier maintenance and debugging.
    • Why it’s good:
      • Separation of concerns: CSS is separated from the logic of your plugin, making it easier to update and maintain.
      • Performance: The browser can cache your external CSS file, leading to better performance.
      • Customization: Users can override styles more easily with child themes or custom CSS.
    • How to do it:phpCopy codefunction your_plugin_enqueue_styles() { wp_enqueue_style('your-plugin-style', plugin_dir_url(__FILE__) . 'css/style.css'); } add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'your_plugin_enqueue_styles');
    • Important: Never place your CSS files in WordPress core directories (like /wp-includes/blocks/navigation/), as they may be overwritten during updates.

    2. Hard-Coding CSS into HTML (Not Recommended):

    • Best Practice: Avoid hard-coding CSS directly into your plugin’s HTML output. This method makes the CSS difficult to override and maintain.
    • Why it’s discouraged:
      • Difficult to modify: Users won’t be able to easily adjust the styles without modifying the plugin code.
      • Performance: Inline styles are harder for browsers to cache, which could impact performance.
      • Customization issues: Themes or other plugins may not be able to override your inline styles without complex specificity rules.

    3. Using WordPress CSS Tags (Contextual Styling):

    • Best Practice: It’s a good idea to align your plugin’s design with the active theme’s styles. You can leverage WordPress’s existing classes (like .wp-block, .entry-content, etc.) to ensure your plugin inherits the theme’s design. However, you should still provide fallback styles in your plugin’s CSS file.
    • Why it’s good:
      • Seamless integration: Your plugin will automatically adapt to the user’s theme design, leading to a more cohesive user experience.
      • Customization: Themes can easily style your plugin’s output to match the overall design.
    • How to approach it: Use common WordPress classes where appropriate but add your own unique class names to avoid conflicts.

    4. Automatically Adding CSS to Core Directories (Not Recommended):

    • Best Practice: Never add or modify files in core directories like /wp-includes/. WordPress updates will overwrite these changes, and it’s not good for maintainability.
    • Why it’s discouraged:
      • Risk of losing changes: Any WordPress core update will overwrite your files.
      • Best practice violations: Modifying core files can break future updates and create compatibility issues.

    Conclusion (Best Practice):

    The best approach is a combination of Option 1 and Option 3:

    • Store your CSS in a separate file within your plugin folder, enqueue it properly, and ensure that it’s easy to maintain.
    • Leverage WordPress’s CSS classes to ensure your plugin adapts to theme styles where appropriate but provides your own fallback styles.

    This ensures your plugin is maintainable, compatible with future WordPress updates, and offers flexibility for users who want to customize its appearance.

    Thank you for confirming the issue. We’re experiencing the same behavior with synced blocks, and the console error you’ve mentioned is consistent with what we’re seeing. The “Maximum update depth exceeded” warning suggests that there might be an issue with the useEffect hook in the BlockProps component. It seems like setState is being triggered in a way that’s causing an infinite loop, potentially due to missing or constantly changing dependencies in the dependency array. We’ll need to look into the component’s logic to identify and resolve this.
