Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Blankless – Default Block Patterns for Post Types

Start typing in a slug field on the settings screen. It suggests every published Saved Pattern and every registered pattern on the site. A Saved Pattern's slug is its post slug, usually its title in lowercase with hyphens. A registered pattern's slug is its registered name, such as mytheme/staff-profile, or just staff-profile.

They show where the matched pattern lives. "Saved in Site Editor" means it was made in WordPress and saved on your site, under Appearance → Editor → Patterns (or Appearance → Patterns with a classic theme, where it reads "Saved in Patterns"). Click Edit next to it to open that pattern. "In Code" means the pattern comes from your theme's or a plugin's files, so it's changed there rather than in WordPress.

The pattern saved in the Site Editor takes priority over the one in code, as long as it was published when you last saved the settings. Otherwise the pattern in code is used.

Yes. Every public post type appears in the settings table, except Media and Patterns themselves.

New posts open with the normal empty editor, as if the plugin weren't there. The Status column shows "Pattern not found" so you can spot the problem.

No. It only fills new posts that start out empty. Existing posts are never changed.

No. The plugin copies the pattern's blocks into each new post as a starting point. Changing the pattern later affects posts created after the change, not ones that already exist.

WordPress only shows that window for empty new posts. Once a post type has a default pattern, its new posts aren't empty, so the window stays closed. Clear the slug for that post type to get it back.

Administrators, or any role with the manage_options capability.

It works, but patterns are block markup, so the Classic Editor shows the raw HTML and block comments. The plugin is meant for the block editor.
