Which blocks are missing?

Question: Which blocks are not in the first version of Full Site Editing?

Answer: There are quite a few that have been requested but not yet prioritised. And there are others not yet asked for.

Missing blocks needed in my themes

Missing FSE blocks?

Notes

  • Gutenberg 10.6.0 contains 177 blocks and block variations.
  • Over 35 of these are new for Full Site Editing.
  • Some blocks that have been delivered require improvements / fixes to make them equivalent to the PHP template functions that they replace.
  • Many are being constantly improved.

Getting your requirements heard

Search for block requirements in the official GitHub repositories: projects, issues and even PR’s.

If the requirement is not there, and you believe it should be a core block, then raise a Feature Request.

If there’s already a block, but it doesn’t have the functionality you need, then raise new requirements.

Be as detailed as possible to satisfy your requirement while allowing some flexibility so that it may also satisfy other people’s requirements.
