If you go into the Media Library of a WordPress install and click on an image you will get the image and fields for: URL, Title, Caption, Alt Text, and Description.
When working on a post with the Classic Editor and adding an image once it is uploaded I have access to and can populate the Title, Caption, Alt Text, and Description fields. These fields of information will be available if the image is viewed later in the Media Library.
In the Gutenberg Editor working on a post if I add an image and fill-in the Caption and Alternative Text info that text will not appear when the image is viewed in the Media Library. The missing text makes the images unsearchable and unable to be reused as all the information is missing.
Users are forced to work in both the Media Library AND Post editor when adding new images with caption/description info.
Apparently, this is already being talked about in Github. Having to round-trip to Media Library and back is a major break of workflow to maintain proper database fields being attached to images and people are not happy. Also breaks some SEO. https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/11054

In reply to: [Gutenberg] Join blocksI agree. I have a group of paragraphs and bulleted lists that would be great if it could be in one reusable block but it appears to be impossible to save it all as one block. It’s an action list for hurricanes.
It would be nice if there was a way to chain the blocks together and save that reusable chain of blocks.
UPDATE: Okay I figured-out how to make multiple blocks a Reusable Block.
Build the Reusable Block at https://yourdomain.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=wp_block
* Choose Add New
* Build the Reusable Block even if it has multiple blocks
* Publish. This will NOT publish the block onto your site for the public to see but will put the block into your Reusable Block list.Note: You can also get to this when on a Post edit page by clicking the vertical three dots on the upper right, and choose Tools/Manage All Reusable Blocks

In reply to: [URGENT] Site crashes after 4.3 updateTry this, it’s in the READ ME FIRST post of this forum. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/high-cpu-load-after-update-to-v43?replies=17#post-7330770
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: High CPU Load After Update to v4.3Implemented the fix, although things seem to be running better I get a white screen after hitting ‘Publish’ for posts. The posts do indeed publish so no content is lost but having the white screen to navigate from is concerning. Server my install is on is running Nginx if that makes any difference as most other sites run Apache.

In reply to: High CPU Load After Update to v4.3I’m having the same problem where I can’t even get to my Dashboard Admin pages unless I keep monkeying around disabling plugins to get the Admin side to work. The client facing side is okay as CloudFlare is dishing out the pages from their cache.
Currently I can’t get into my Dashboard.
Hopefully a 4.3.1 update can get pushed out to resolve these problems.

In reply to: can't even get into admnI’m having the same problem after upgrading to WP v4.3.0 and it’s either high memory or cpu usage that’s causing the problem. The Dashboard area just delivers a blank page instead of admin pages.
I was able to alleviate this somewhat by disabling plugins that may put a higher load on the server than others. In fact I found that disabling WP SuperCache allowed me to access the admin Dashboard pages, I also had to disable WPtouch Pro.
I moved both into a plugins-disabled directory after SFTP’ing into my server.
Hopefully a v4.3.1 can be pushed out soon as many are reporting problems in these forums.
Oddly enough the problem seems to have cleared itself. Very strange. The problem went away after I created a bunch of anchor links at the top of the page. I’ve marked this as resolved for now. I have seen this happen before.

In reply to: [Uji Countdown] Super Easy but doesn't work with 3.9.1Agreed, can’t save styles in WP v3.9.1 but it does work in the beta of WP 4.0

In reply to: [P2] Posting on Chrome isn't working – Mac OSXTested the fix, it works on my Mac Chrome browser, excellent!

In reply to: [P2] Posting on Chrome isn't working – Mac OSXSeems like the latest version of Google Chrome that I’m using breaks P2 in that I can’t post anything. Tested in both Mac and Windows version of Chrome (on Mac Version 31.0.1650.57). Works fine in Safari. Anyone else notice this? I can type in the box but pressing the post button does nothing but highlight the button itself. I sent in feedback to Google via Chrome.

In reply to: [P2] No embeded video controls in P2 themeThis is really vexing.
I disable all plugins, cleared browser caches, still blobs for controls.
Re-uploaded mp4, same blobs.
Reinstalled P2, same blobs.
Used the re-install button for WP, still blobs.
Switched to Twenty-Thirteen theme, normal video controls.Something about P2 isn’t working right.

In reply to: [P2] No embeded video controls in P2 themeNo video player plugins. Here’s a list of the active plugins:

In reply to: [P2] No embeded video controls in P2 themeOkay, just tried that and I get the same results. Without the parameter code the video is the full P2 post width but controls are still blobbed for some strange reason.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [P2] No embeded video controls in P2 themeThe code looks like this (with domain and filename changed):
[video width="480" height="270" mp4="http://sub.domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/video.mp4"][/video]The video plays fine but the the video controls just appear as white blobs in both minimized and full-screen mode. The video is an .mp4 video.
Looks the same in Chrome, Firefox, Safari on Mac. All the latest versions. The mouseovers have the correct names for the buttons.
Just did a test and the controls show-up as the placeholder image loads but once it loads the buttons/controls turn white. I even put some paragraph breaks below the video code just in case it was bumping into something else but it still has the problem.
When it’s loading it looks like
