SukiWP 💓 We love working directly with theme authors to put together the correct elements of a proper WooCommerce Theme.
We’ve seen a lot of themes trying to do this concept recently, but David over at SukiWP really does it correctly. And, here’s what we’re talking about:
So, what you are looking at above is the Custom Blocks area of the Suki Theme. The title of my block that I’ve created is named Specific ‘Product One’ Reviews. And, yes. I named it that on purpose 👍
So, now I’ve got a “Block” with a curiously genius name, right? You can fire up whichever Gutenberg Block you’d like. But then here’s the great part about that really-specific-named block (or any other block you’d like to create)…
…you can now position that block wherever you would like ❗❗ANYWHERE❗❗ all without know one line of code. No hooks, no filters, no php, no breaking your site, nothing! nada! zip! zilch! No code!
💡Now, I’m not going to show you where I put all of those blocks in a live link (just yet). I want YOU to go experience it for yourself. However if you’ll notice, I did name that example block Specific ‘Product One’ Reviews, right? 😉 So, where would you want to put those product reviews for a specific product?
EVERYWHERE! On a blog post, at the top of the product page itself, in a dedicated reviews page, or anywhere else sprinkled throughout your site! And, that’s one of the many magical aspects of the Suki Theme!
Under no circumstances am I going to use a {cough} popular page builder, load up a bunch of ‘templates’, then attempt and try to make a page with the {cough, cough} popular page builder, or ever mess with ANY page builder at all!
All I do is simply use the native Gutenberg editor, create a reusable block, then tell that block when and where I want it to appear!
I know we all love page builders. Moving forward though, especially with WordPress 5.0+ and the Gutenberg editor, we are going to have to skip these themes that rely on page builders.
You need to start adopting a theme that keeps your site loading fast, and gives you incredible options which will stay current with WordPress and carry your business forward for the next several years!
