Adding Gutenberg Wide and Full support to Genesis themes.

The first step in adding the Gutenberg full and wide align features to our Genesis theme, is to add support for those features in the theme.

This will provide us with two new options in the editor when we are adding content blocks such as images. 

In this video I will cover the code to add to your Genesis theme to enable the full and wide feature, and we will use the demo Gutenberg post to make sure the feature is added correctly and how it looks for our website visitors.

Text Instructions

To add the Gutenberg full and wide features to your Genesis theme, open the functions.php file of your theme in your code editor.

Copy the below code and paste it into the functions.php, after the last ‘}’.

/*
* Gutenberg Compatibility
*/

// Add support for full and wide align images.
add_theme_support( 'align-wide' ); 

Once you have saved the code and refresh the Gutenberg editor, click on an image and you should see wide and full width icons added to the options available.
