Welcome to Jos\u00e9phine!<\/h2>\n

Introducing 5.9, \u2018Jos\u00e9phine\u2019. Named in honor of acclaimed international jazz singer Jos\u00e9phine Baker, this latest, most versatile WordPress release is here: download it<\/a> or update it directly from your dashboard. <\/p>\n

As a lifelong civil rights campaigner, Jos\u00e9phine Baker believed that all people could live in harmony together, just as different instruments in a jazz band blend together to make a whole piece. Turn on a playlist from your favorite music service and enjoy her famous renditions of \u201cYou are the greatest love\u201d, \u201cSans Amour\u201d, and \u201cLove is a Dreamer\u201d as you discover all the features of this brand-new WordPress release. <\/p>\n

It puts you in control of your whole site, right in the WordPress Admin.<\/p>\n

Say hello to Twenty Twenty-Two.<\/h3>\n

And say hello to the first default block theme in the history of WordPress. This is more than just a new default theme. It\u2019s a brand-new way to work with WordPress themes.<\/p>\n

Block themes<\/a> put a wide array of visual choices directly in your hands, from color schemes and font combinations to page templates and image filters, all from the Site Editor<\/a>. So in one place, you can give Twenty Twenty-Two the same look and feel as your organization\u2019s other materials\u2014or take your site\u2019s look in another direction.<\/p>\n

You already have the Twenty Twenty-Two theme\u2014it came installed with WordPress 5.9. You will find it with your other installed themes.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Your personal paintbox awaits<\/h3>\n

Twenty Twenty-Two is not the only theme built for full site editing. More block themes are in the Themes directory, and the number will grow. <\/p>\n

When you use any of those new themes, you no longer need the Customizer. Instead, you have all the power of the Styles interface inside the Site Editor. Just as in Twenty Twenty-Two, you build your site\u2019s look and feel there, with the tools you need for the job in a fluid interface that practically comes alive in your hands.<\/p>\n

The Navigation block<\/h3>\n

Blocks come to site navigation, the heart of user experience.<\/p>\n

The new Navigation block gives you the power to choose: an always-on responsive menu or one that adapts to your user\u2019s screen size. And your choices are remembered! In 5.9, the block saves menus as custom post types, which get saved to the database.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

More improvements and updates<\/h2>\n

Do you love to blog? New tweaks to the publishing flow help you say more, faster.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Better block controls<\/h3>\n

WordPress 5.9 features new typography tools, flexible layout controls, and finer control of details like spacing, borders, and more\u2014to help you get not just the look, but the polish that says you care about details.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n

The power of patterns<\/h3>\n

The WordPress Pattern Directory is the home of a wide range of block patterns built to save you time and add to your site’s functionality. And you can edit them as you see fit. Need something different in the header or footer for your theme? Swap it out with a new one in a few clicks.<\/p>\n

With a nearly full-screen view that draws you in to see fine details, the Pattern Explorer makes it easy to compare patterns and choose the one your users need.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

A revamped List View<\/h3>\n

In 5.9, the List View lets you drag and drop your content exactly where you want it. Managing complex documents is easier, too: simple controls let you expand and collapse sections as you build your site\u2014and add HTML anchors to your blocks to help users get around the page.<\/p>\n
