Why You Should Upgrade to WordPress 5.4? (Top
Features)
Updates are made to any software for a reason.
Isnt it? And keeping up with those updates is
important to be a successful W ordpress website
design. Now you might say that if the older
version is already working well, then why should
I go for a new one?
2
Well, your logic has got a point, but tell me one
thing if you head to a showroom to purchase a
car, you buy the middle or top variant even
though the lower variant meets your necessity.
Why? Because you think spending a few bucks more
on the purchase will enhance your product
experience, be it more airbags, bigger
touchscreen, or appealing alloy
wheels. Conclusively, features matter to you
whether it is in terms of safety, comfort, or
look. The case with software like WordPress is
more or less the same. Recently, a new avatar of
WordPress has been released thats loaded with a
lot of powerful features. It is named
Adderley. This version of WordPress is better
than the previous one in many ways and you can
easily download it from the official WordPress
site. The biggest center of attention within
WordPress 5.4 is the features that are focused
around WordPress Block Editor. So, without
spending a second more in the surfaced
discussion, lets get into the detailed
one. But, before initialization of the WordPress
5.4 features list, its time to dive into the
best web design company in Los Angeles SFWP

New Features In WordPress 5.4 1. A Fullscreen
Editor This version of WordPress allows users to
view the block editor in the fullscreen mode by
default. You will be able to see the change when
updating your website with WordPress 5.4 or
accessing the WordPress admin dashboard through
a new device or browser in the incognito tab. On
the other side, if you are using WordPress 5.3
and upgrading it to 5.4 using the same browser
and device that you use on a regular basis, then
the editor will be displayed on the screen in the
last mode you enabled. However, there is a way
to disable the fullscreen mode if you want. Head
over Editor Settings and just uncheck the box of
Fullscreen Mode. Besides, Block editor authors
can take control of fullscreen mode by typing
just a few lines of JavaScript codes const
isFullscreenMode wp.data.select(
core/edit-post ).isFeatureActive(
fullscreenMode ) if ( isFullscreenMode
) wp.data.dispatch( core/edit-post
).toggleFeature( fullscreenMode ) In case
you have plans to set up a brand new eCommerce
store in the near future, we highly recommend
utilizing the WooCommerce A WordPress plugin.
Its because WooCommerce provides an abundance of
facilities and features to make your shopping
site up and running within a short time.
However, if you need some customized work, hire
our Los Angeles web

  describe in fewer words, we are suitable to be
  chosen for eCommerce web design, web

• The Social Icons Block
• As the name clearly conveys, the Social Icons
  Block allows you to add social networking site
  icons in your posts and pages.
• Take note that it comes in handy just to add
  social media icons having links to your profile,
  not social share buttons. For that, you will have
  to download a social media plugin equipped with
  sharing features. Then, you need to just click
  on the button and select the icons of social
  media sites that you want to put on your posts
  and pages.
• Just so you know the social icon block comes with
  three styles for visual communication that are
  Default, Logos Only, and Pill Shape.
• You can watch the video to pick the best social
  media plugin
• The Buttons Block
• One of the best things about WordPress 5.4 is
  that it features the New Button block instead of
  the old Button block. Its major advantage is that
  you can add a number of buttons to the content
  side-by side-with the same block container.
• As you can view in the picture above, we have
  added three separate buttons naming Starter,
  Business, and Enterprise.

6

• Whats more, you can select background or
  gradient colors for each button as you like and
  can also make a selection from two different
  styles.
• Being a buttons block user, you can also adjust
  the look and feel of your call-to-action buttons
  with gradient backgrounds.

  would like to let you know that you can assign
  the conversion-boosting task to us. Being gained

  it possible by suggesting clients take our

• Additional Color Options For Blocks
• One of the best things that happened with
  WordPress 5.4 is that it now has more color
  options for several blocks. In addition, some
  refinements to the block editor have also been
  made. In extension to the solid background
  colors, now you can also add colors of your
  choices to create more tempting layouts for your
  posts and pages.
• When using the previous version of WordPress, you
  were only able to change the color of the text
  in a paragraph, but now you can change the color
  of any text inside a paragraph block.
• A Block Selection Tool

7

• A new button present in the toolbar now allows
  users to select desired blocks easily. This tool
  seems extremely useful when you have nested
  blocks inside a group block.
• All you need to do is click on the select tool
  and then hover your mouse arrow to the block
  that you want to select.
• With this, you would have got an idea of why
  upgrading to WordPress 5.4 is a wise decision.

• Drag And Drop Function For Adding Featured Image
• In the previous version of WordPress, you were
  required to manually select to upload and set
  the featured image a two-step process. However,
  in WordPress 5.4, this functionality has been
  replaced by dragging and dropping an image to
  the featured image section.
• An Enhanced Toolbar for Block Editor

8

• If you have been running the previous variant of
  WordPress, you know well how the block settings
  toolbar used to move around when you have to edit
  a blog post on a mobile device. This made the
  process extremely difficult to use the editor on
  mobile phones.
• Thanks to WordPress 5.4, it features a fixed
  toolbar on the top to make it easy to use the
  editor.

• An Option For Selecting Image Sizes In The
  Gallery Block
• Previously, you wanted to adjust the image sizes
  in the image gallery block but there wasnt any
  way to do it, right? But, with WordPress 5.4 you
  are enabled to select the image size directly in
  the gallery settings.
• Better Latest Posts Block
• In the previous generation of WordPress, the
  Latest Posts block didnt have featured images,
  however, in the latest version you can even
  choose the

9

• size and dimension of the featured image. This
  helps in making the Latest Posts block more
  useful than ever before.

• Insertion of Tit Tok Videos In WordPress
• Do you know an interesting thing about WordPress
  5.4? It allows you to embed Tik Tok videos in
  your posts and pages. You can do it easily just
  like you embed YouTube videos in your content.
• All you need to do is paste the video URL in the
  box and then the WordPress will automatically
  embed it.
• Updated Privacy Tools
• Next, WordPress 5.4 is equipped with improved
  built-in privacy tools. Now personal data
  exports comprise various tools such as session
  tokens, community events location, and custom
  user meta.

we had for you about new features in WordPress
5.4 and now we will move onto the additional
changes in WordPress 5.4 for web
developers. What Are The Additional Changes in
WordPress 5.4? From the massive chunk of the
information above the heading, you can easily
get an idea about the changes and improvements
WordPress 5.4 includes. No doubt, these
enhancements will mostly affect theme and plugin
authors. Using new hooks, features, authors can
embed custom fields into menu items (menu screen
as well as customizers menu editor). Apart from
that, WordPress 5.4 has introduced a whole bunch
of Keyboard Shortcuts in a single
package _at_wordpress/keyboard shortcuts to
bring together the registration, elimination,
and documentation of the keyboard shortcuts that
are available in the block screen editor.
11
Additionally, this version of WordPress has also
changed the HTML output for the calendar widget.
You can notice the shifting of navigation links
to a ltnavgt HTML element just after the lttablegt
element to generate valid HTML. A new
apply_shortcodes() function is now available with
an additional name do_shortcode() function. On
top of that, a few unused customizer classes now
get a better alternative. Summary Well, thats
