This sounds a little bit like the WordPress theme specific functionality of Post Formats, doesn’t it? Yes and resoundingly no!Post Formats was a WordPress feature introduced in version 3.1, ostensibly to compete with other social platforms like Tumblr which offers the explicit post types of text, photo, quote, link, chat, audio and video.Boffosoko

I really want to like the Post Kinds concept. I think if it were an extension of the Post Format concept, it would be perfect. As is, I have to disable Gutenberg and go back to either manually posting HTML, Markdown or using the inferior TinyMCE editor. All the new development being poured into blocks and features is now lost to me. This seems like a pretty crappy trade-off.I somewhat deal with it (on posts) because it’s the only way to actually use Post Kinds without any other hackery. I’m not happy about it, though. Gutenberg is the first editor in almost twenty years of being a web developer that I feel confident of sitting down a SME and having them bang out a legible document that isn’t full of trash HTML and imported styles from copy/pastes from Word.Regardless, I do appreciate the work done on this, and I am safe in saying that I’m in no position to make any claims on my own ability to build such a tool.Edit: This post was from 2017.
