What?

Enabling spacing support for the Post Date block (hidden by default).

Why?

To create consistency across blocks. Padding and Margin can be quite useful for blocks like Post Date that are used in layouts for post templates.

How?

  • Opt-in to Padding and Margin
  • Because the Post Date block is rendered in a div element that stretches full width, also add a box-sizing: border-box rule for consistency with other blocks that opt-in to padding. (e.g. this ensure that the padding settings of Post Date will line up nicely with a Group block that has padding in TwentyTwentyTwo theme)

Testing Instructions

  1. Load the block editor and add a Post Date block adjacent to another block (e.g. between two paragraphs, or beneath a heading).
  2. Confirm that the dimensions control panel is there.
  3. Add margin and padding.
  4. (Note that left/right margins will not appear to do anything because alignment rules take precedence — this is a known peculiarity of the margin block support, but it's still useful to have all controls available, particularly for when Post Date is used within a Row block)
  5. Save and confirm the styles appear on the site frontend
  6. Test that new support works for the block via global styles. Note a caveat here about margin styles in global styles as raised in: Layout: layout styles overriding block axial margin values in theme.json #43404

Screenshots or screencast

This screengrab demonstrates the usefulness of being able to adjust a single margin side when the block is used within a Row block:
