Design your navigation overlay
A dedicated canvas for your menu.<br>Build the navigation overlay you want visitors to see. Go beyond a simple list of links: add columns, increase the font size, and align everything to your liking. Start from a pre-built template, or design your own from scratch.
AI foundations
A centralized hub for your connections.<br>The Connectors screen introduces a single hub for managing a range of external service integrations, including AI providers. Opt in by connecting your preferred AI provider, then put it to work across your site. The optional AI plugin adds a growing set of tools directly into the editor: create titles and excerpts, generate and edit images, and suggest alt text. Any plugin that needs to connect to an outside service can tap into this standardized connection management system, making it easy for users and developers alike.
Visual revisions
Scrub through every version of your page.<br>Review your post’s revision history with a timeline slider and see exactly what changed in the document with visual markers, block by block. Find the version you want and restore it in one click.
A simpler way to build with patterns
Patterns as single blocks.<br>Drop a pattern onto your page and it behaves like one block, so you don’t have to hunt through nested blocks for the element you want to change. Swap the text and images, adjust styles from the inspector, and keep moving. For any advanced edits, a single click to "edit pattern" gives you access to all available tools.
Performance
WordPress 7.0 improves the accuracy of image loading prioritization, preventing hidden images in navigation overlays or interactive blocks from degrading the loading of critical resources. On-demand block stylesheet loading in classic themes is more reliable, and the ability is added for scripts to depend on script modules to reduce render-blocking.
Accessibility
WordPress continues to polish accessibility across WordPress Core and Gutenberg, advancing the goals to meet accessibility standards. WordPress 7.0 includes fixes across the platform, improving media management, usability for voice control, and improvements to color contrast with the new admin color scheme. The editor ships with new blocks and improvements to editor navigation and interaction.
Enhanced details and new blocks
Font library for all themes
The font library, previously only available in block themes, now works across all WordPress themes. Browse, install, and manage fonts directly from the editor, whatever theme you're using.
A refreshed admin experience
The WordPress admin has a quieter, more modern feel: a fresh default color scheme, updated buttons and inputs, and pages that now fade between each other instead of jumping abruptly.
Show the right blocks
Choose which blocks appear at each screen size. Build cleaner mobile layouts, simplify sections, and keep alternate versions in place while you iterate.
Icon block
A new block for adding icons anywhere on your page. Choose from a built-in library, drop one in, and style it to match your design.
