The Paragraph block is simple, but it plays an important role within your webpages. The bulk of your content will be presented within Paragraph blocks.

Formatting Options

The Paragraph block offers these formatting options, found in the block toolbar:

• Bold
• Italics
• Hyperlinks
• Left, center and right alignment
• Superscript and subscript
  • These options are found in the block toolbar, in the drop-down menu located to the right of the hyperlink icon.
• Bulleted or numbered lists
  • These options are found by clicking the paragraph symbol in the block toolbar, which reveals a drop-down menu that includes “Lists.”

Additional Functionality

Statement Styling

Within pages, a “Statement” styling variation is available for paragraphs. This styling option gives editors the ability to apply larger text with increased font weight. This option also allows selection of a font color from the site’s approved brand color palette. These settings are available in the block settings found in the right-hand menu of the WordPress editor.

YouTube Video Embedding

The Paragraph block also supports immediate YouTube video embeds by simply pasting in the URL of a YouTube video.

Supplemental Block Types

There are also additional block types that can supplement content within paragraphs, including the following:

• Image
