+
+| Before | After |
+| ------ | ----- |

Add an incompatible payment gateway with the C&C Blocks (e.g., [Klarna Payments](https://docs.klarna.com/platform-solutions/woocommerce/klarna-checkout/configuring-klarna-checkout-on-woocommerce/) or [Paypal](https://woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-paypal-payments/#account-setup)). You will need to configure them to be detected and used by WooCommerce.
+2. Create a new page and add the `Checkout` Block
+3. Select any element of the `Checkout` Block. You should see a notice with the list of incompatible gateways in the right sidebar of the editor (i.e., `Settings -> Block`). Ensure the notice's icon has a yellow color, and the list of gateways has bullet points (see image below):

+5. On the frontend, apply some filters for this block and then attempt to reset them by clicking the "Reset" button (in this scenario the page will refresh).
+
+### Fix a bug in WordPress 5.9 in which changing quantity doesn't work inside Cart and Mini Cart blocks. ([8356](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-blocks/pull/8356))
+
+1. In WordPress 5.9.x, go to Cart block.

+
+1. Create a single-use coupon in your Marketing -> Coupons dashboard. The usage limit should be set to 1.
+2. Add items to your cart, apply the coupon and check out.
+3. Once checkout is complete, add a new item to your cart, go to the Cart block and try to reapply the coupon.
+4. Ensure you see the error message. Click into the coupon input again and then click out of it without changing the value.

+
+## Feature plugin
+
+### Fix: The experimental typography styles for the Store Breadcrumbs block are now restricted to the feature plugin. ([8345](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-blocks/pull/8345))
+
+1. Make sure you are using a block theme.
