For reference, the 2025 theme calls: <!-- wp:template-part {"slug":"header"} /--> In index.html (for example). That then calls this: <!-- wp:pattern {"slug":"twentytwentyfive/header"} /--> Both of this files are called header.html. Why this setup?

I have had this conversation on here and also with AI on numerous occasions but I still don't understand the difference. The conservation is... What is the difference between block theme template parts and synced patterns?

Thanks - I already use those, but I think what the community, as well as me is resources on how to build client sites using FSE. A lot of the information out there doesn't necessarily work in a client situation.

This is the point - where does one learn about all this?

Another thing was one minute my image block has height and width controls, the next it doesn't? Also sometimes I can align (full/width) a block and sometimes I can't? I also get spacing between blocks that I cannot seem to remove. All very frsutrating.

My biggest issue at the moment was the in ability to choose a different footer pattern for my footer. We have patterns & templates parts which are confusing - how are they different. Also very hard to maintain consistency across the site.

I have spent today trying to build a directory site for my golf club. Thought FSE would be perfect with a few plugins. I am an experienced developer but I cannot make any progress. FSE is supposed to enable anyone to build and edit a WordPress site. I just feel 😢

Having one of those days / nights. Just taken me 15 minutes to find out how to add an excerpt to a post 😱

Why is it that I have width and height controls on some image blocks but not others.

All I want to do today is create a row of logos on my homepage. Why is this so difficult with modern (and maybe even older) #WordPress?

I don't think my kids really know an awful lot about it tbh. What particularly about AI are they "railing" about?

@williamsba just watched the webinar "Preparing Your WordPress Agency for 2026" and enjoyed it. Thank you for your insights. 1 ❓ if I may. You are use Theme Switcher Pro with your clients. Do they pay you for a license? Or do you give them a license as part of your work?
