Okay, I reverted to gutenberg v2.2 so I can test the custom html block on xampp, and I see that the column classes work fine in an html block. Thanks for your feedback, and I'll keep working with it.
Michael PurcellMemberThanks for the answer, Victor.
Have you tested the genesis column classes in the gutenberg editor, or is it an assumption that it will work?
If I have an existing page designed in the classic editor with column classes and open it in the gutenberg editor, it shows in a single "classic" block with the html intact. If I then convert to blocks from the menu, each element of the page is assigned it's own block, paragraph, heading, image, etc. and the column class tags are all stripped away. This results in everything displaying in a single column.
I assume that the original html could be placed in an html block, but I can't test this on my xampp server because of an unfixed bug in the gutenberg editor which prevents the html block for working when wordpress is installed in a subdirectory. So if you actually tested this, would I be correct to assume that you used an html block to get the column classes to work in the gutenberg editor?
Thanks in advance.
Michael PurcellMemberActually, I didn't come up with a solution. However, at the time I first posted this, I was not aware of Gutnberg. The purpose of this was to allow the end user to see the column classes in the back end editor. Before long now, tinymce will be replaced by Gutenberg, and eventually I expect tinymce will be completely removed from WordPress. As far as I can see, that should solve this problem.
