First we’ll look at the settings for the Cover block. The settings are similar to many other blocks.

To access the settings for any block…

  • Click inside the block. Or…
  • Hover over the very edge (left or right hand side) of the block until you see a blue line, then click the blue line.
  • After you’ve selected a block, look in the post editor sidebar for more settings.

It can be fiddly finding the right place to click in order to access the settings you need. The best plan is to hover around each block and click in several places to see what options popup.

The settings are context sensitive, so you see different settings depending on what you click.
