• With this theme as standard the “classic” WordPress approach is gone. One used to choose between either using a rarther nice looking default theme and tweak it quite easily and produce a professional looking website or, alternatively, installing a 3rd party theme which required some digging into in order to have the desired result.
    Twenty Twenty-Three is not as intuitively customisable as the classic themes. I looks clean and nice out of the box, but customising is a pain.

    Conclusion:

    • if you like everything about Twenty Twenty-Three and don´t want to customise it: go for it
    • if you like a standard theme that can be adjusted to your needs: choose a classic theme
    • if neither of the the above applies, browse for a suitable 3rd party theme

  • Hey @archie_n, thank you for sharing your thoughts!

    I completely agree that block themes are inherently more complicated to customize compared to classic themes. You have probably seen this already, but the Site Editor docs is a great place to start.

    At the same time, it is also true that for someone who has no experience coding, block themes provide more out-of-the-box options for customization than classic ones.

    I am curious as to what parts of the customization you find challenging, would you like to share a bit more? Maybe this feedback could turn into a good issue.

    Thanks again!
