  • A new version of WooCommerce Blocks has been released! Version 7.1.0 is now available for download from GitHub and WordPress.org.

    Seamless styling control

    Our continued focus is to empower you with the best tools WordPress has to offer to customize your store the way you want.

    In this release, we continue to add Global Styles support to even more blocks and improve the editor capabilities and options to give you control where and when you need it.

    More is happening behind the scenes, so, if you haven’t yet gotten excited about global styles, now it’s the time to dive in and learn more about them!

    A commitment to stability and compatibility

    As we work towards the inclusion of the Store API in WooCommerce Core, we introduce versioning to the Store API in this release. This means endpoints can now be reached via wc/store/v1/ as well as wc/store/. We’ve ensured this does not break compatibility with the existing structure which continues to map to v1.

    For more details and stability improvements, please take a look at the changelog below:

  • A new version of WooCommerce Blocks has been released! Version 6.9.0 is now available for download from GitHub and WordPress.org.

    This release brings support for global styles to the Featured Category block. This means you can now include this block in a template if you’re using the full site editor, and change its appearance everywhere it appears on your site from one place.

    Bug Fixes

    Our last release introduced the ability for the LegacyTemplate block to be reinserted, only on WooCommerce block templates. This was a mistake and had some unintended consequences, so we reverted this change in this release.

    We also fixed some minor styling issues in the Cart and Checkout blocks and we also enabled Mini Cart template parts for experimental builds only.

    For more details please see the Changelog below:

    Changelog

    Enhancements

    • Add support for the global style for the Featured Category block. (5542)

    • Wrapped cart item product contents in inner div. (5240)
    • Fix alignment issue with the “create account” section on the checkout block in the editor (5633)
