What?

Remove the block gap controls from Global Styles sidebar. Props to @andrewserong for noticing.

Why?

  1. It's not supported at the root level in ROOT_BLOCK_SUPPORTS
  2. It doesn't work at the individual block level in global styles anyway.

How?

BANISHED!

Testing Instructions

Before checking out this branch, ensure that blockGap doesn't:

  • Appear at the root global styles level
  • Work for block Global Style, e.g., edit the Group/Navigation/Social Icons (or any block that has blockGap support) block gap values.

Publish a page after you've set a few Global Style block gap values. Check the source of the published page for any trace of your gap value. Any?

  1. Check out this branch git checkout -t origin/remove/global-styles-block-gap-control
  2. Using a block theme, edit your site.
  3. Check that Global Style block gap dimensions controls do not show at both the root level and for blocks that has blockGap support

This tests as advertised for me. 👍

✅ Confirmed on trunk that blockGap isn't displayed at the root global styles level
✅ Confirmed on trunk that blockGap global styles for individual blocks didn't work e.g. Social Icons
✅ Didn't find any reference to gap on published page
✅ After checking out this branch blockGap controls did not show at root or individual block levels

The changes LGTM. I may be missing a little context on the reasoning behind this PR so might pay to wait for @andrewserong's approval.

This is testing well for me, too, thanks for putting it together so quickly @ramonjd! 🤞 we'll be able to re-introduce the feature before too long 😀

Block spacing is no longer available in global styles Block spacing is still available within the post and site editors, just at the individual block level

Hey folks, while removing this from the "blocks" global styles is a good call here, I'm a bit confused about why we need to remove it from the global level. I see that you mention that it didn't work, can we fix that instead?

I know that when I removed the CSS variables from the blocks block gap behavior, I intentionally kept the variable as a fallback in the generated styles to be able to support defining the block gap at the root level.

@ramonjd @andrewserong @aaronrobertshaw this was a very intentional and important feature of global styles to help design visual rhythm :D

Thanks for the heads up @youknowriad and @mtias

Revert commit here: #39845

Was a bit of a shotgun approach admittedly.

I'll look more closely at what is not working and create issues/fix it.

I see that you mention that it didn't work, can we fix that instead?

Thanks for following up, @ramonjd! Yes, just confirming that the intention is definitely to fix it and have it working properly in time for WP 6.0.

* Revert "Removing block gap control for global styles since: (#39601)"

This reverts commit dcad2b4.

We do this by checking for a block name and then returning false.
