Full Site Editing (FSE) changes how you build a WordPress blog. Instead of relying on old customizer workflows and template code edits, you shape the site directly with blocks, templates, and global styles.
For a WordPress block theme like Shanti, this means faster setup and cleaner long-term maintenance.
Templates become the layout system
For a blog, the key templates are:
- Home or index
- Single post
- Archive
- Page
These determine how content appears across the site. You can edit them directly and preview results immediately.
Template parts keep framing consistent
Header and footer are shared template parts. Edit once, apply everywhere.
This is one of the biggest quality-of-life improvements in FSE: consistency without repetitive edits.
Global styles reduce one-off fixes
Typography, spacing, and color settings can be controlled globally, which helps keep the site visually stable as you publish more content.
Why this matters for a blog
Blogs evolve over time. FSE lets you adapt your layouts as your content grows without rebuilding the site from scratch.
Shanti is built around this approach: simple editing, reusable structure, and content-first presentation.
