  1. Why You Should Upgrade to WordPress 5.4? (Top Features) Updates are made to any software for a reason. Isn’t it? And keeping up with those updates is important to be a successful Wordpress website design​. Now you might say that if the older version is already working well, then why should I go for a new one?

  2. Well, your logic has got a point, but tell me one thing if you head to a showroom to purchase a car, you buy the middle or top variant even though the lower variant meets your necessity. Why? Because you think spending a few bucks more on the purchase will enhance your product experience, be it more airbags, bigger touchscreen, or appealing alloy wheels. Conclusively, features matter to you whether it is in terms of safety, comfort, or look. The case with software like WordPress is more or less the same. Recently, a new avatar of WordPress has been released that’s loaded with a lot of powerful features. It is named “Adderley”. This version of WordPress is better than the previous one in many ways and you can easily download it from the official WordPress site. The biggest center of attention within WordPress 5.4 is the features that are focused around WordPress Block Editor. So, without spending a second more in the surfaced discussion, let’s get into the detailed one. But, before initialization of the WordPress 5.4 features list, it’s time to dive into the ​best ​web design company in Los Angeles — SFWP Experts​.

Back to core subject of the content, let’s start getting informed about what’s new in WordPress 5.4. What’s New In WordPress 5.4? You will get refined themes and plugins as compared to the previous version enabling you to have better development experience as well as enhanced compatibility with all devices and browsers. Note — Prior to updating your site with the latest WordPress 5.4, make sure to take a full backup of your WordPress website. Area In Focus — New Block Editor, Features, and Improvements With the latest update of WordPress 5.4, you can easily understand that it is focused on enhancing the content editor for different devices like mobile and desktop. Some of the major changes that are easy to notice: ● Change in the user interface (now gets a fullscreen mode by default) ● The improved block selection experience ● Ability to easily switch between edit and selection mode ● Fixed toolbar in mobiles ● Breadcrumbs for block navigation Now, let’s take a look at the features included in WordPress 5.4.

  4. New Features In WordPress 5.4 1. A Fullscreen Editor This version of WordPress allows users to view the block editor in the fullscreen mode by default. You will be able to see the change when updating your website with WordPress 5.4 or accessing the WordPress admin dashboard through a new device or browser in the incognito tab. On the other side, if you are using WordPress 5.3 and upgrading it to 5.4 using the same browser and device that you use on a regular basis, then the editor will be displayed on the screen in the last mode you enabled. However, there is a way to disable the fullscreen mode if you want. Head over Editor Settings and just uncheck the box of “Fullscreen Mode”. Besides, Block editor authors can take control of fullscreen mode by typing just a few lines of JavaScript codes: const isFullscreenMode = wp.data.select( ‘core/edit-post’ ).isFeatureActive( ‘fullscreenMode’ ); if ( isFullscreenMode ) { wp.data.dispatch( ‘core/edit-post’ ).toggleFeature( ‘fullscreenMode’ ); } In case you have plans to set up a brand new eCommerce store in the near future, we highly recommend utilizing the ​WooCommerce — A WordPress plugin. It’s because WooCommerce provides an abundance of facilities and features to make your shopping site up and running within a short time. However, if you need some customized work, hire our Los Angeles web

  5. design company as your trusted coding partner. To describe in fewer words, we are suitable to be chosen for eCommerce web design, web development, custom shopping cart development, ​email marketing​, online advertising, PPC, SEO, and more. 2. The Social Icons Block As the name clearly conveys, the Social Icons Block allows you to add social networking site icons in your posts and pages. Take note that it comes in handy just to add social media icons having links to your profile, not social share buttons. For that, you will have to download a social media plugin equipped with sharing features. Then, you need to just click on the button and select the icons of social media sites that you want to put on your posts and pages. Just so you know the social icon block comes with three styles for visual communication that are Default, Logos Only, and Pill Shape. You can watch the video to pick the best social media plugin: 3. The Buttons Block One of the best things about WordPress 5.4 is that it features the New Button block instead of the old Button block. Its major advantage is that you can add a number of buttons to the content side-by side-with the same block container. As you can view in the picture above, we have added three separate buttons naming Starter, Business, and Enterprise.

  6. What’s more, you can select background or gradient colors for each button as you like and can also make a selection from two different styles. Being a buttons block user, you can also adjust the look and feel of your call-to-action buttons with gradient backgrounds.

Additional Color Options For Blocks One of the best things that happened with WordPress 5.4 is that it now has more color options for several blocks. In addition, some refinements to the block editor have also been made. In extension to the solid background colors, now you can also add colors of your choices to create more tempting layouts for your posts and pages. When using the previous version of WordPress, you were only able to change the color of the text in a paragraph, but now you can change the color of any text inside a paragraph block. 5. A Block Selection Tool

  7. A new button present in the toolbar now allows users to select desired blocks easily. This tool seems extremely useful when you have nested blocks inside a group block. All you need to do is click on the select tool and then hover your mouse arrow to the block that you want to select.

Drag And Drop Function For Adding Featured Image In the previous version of WordPress, you were required to manually select to upload and set the featured image — a two-step process. However, in WordPress 5.4, this functionality has been replaced by dragging and dropping an image to the featured image section. 7. An Enhanced Toolbar for Block Editor

  8. If you have been running the previous variant of WordPress, you know well how the block settings toolbar used to move around when you have to edit a blog post on a mobile device. This made the process extremely difficult to use the editor on mobile phones. Thanks to WordPress 5.4, it features a fixed toolbar on the top to make it easy to use the editor.

But, with WordPress 5.4 you are enabled to select the image size directly in the gallery settings. 9.
