We want to invite you to test our new theme and our very first Gutenberg blocks. The more feedback we can receive, the better we can tailor our new projects to your needs. So we would greatly appreciate your help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to download the Aino theme and block plugin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently you can download our Aino theme and block collection plugin via the following links on Github:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/elmastudio\/aino-theme\">Aino theme on Github<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/elmastudio\/aino-blocks\">Aino block plugin on Github<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can download the theme and the plugin on Github and then upload them to your WordPress installation. Please make sure to install the official <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/gutenberg\/\">Gutenberg plugin<\/a> first, before using the Aino blocks (since we are using some core blocks in combination with our blocks, which are currently only available via the Gutenberg plugin).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also as long as both projects are still beta versions, we don\u2019t recommend to use the theme and plugin on live websites. It would be great if you can test them on your local WordPress installation or on a test website instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which blocks are included in the plugin?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a983cf4ce933&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a983cf4ce933\" class=\"wp-block-image wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"820\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/aino-wordpress-blocks-editor.jpg\" alt=\"WordPress Editor Blocks Aino\" class=\"wp-image-275458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/aino-wordpress-blocks-editor.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/aino-wordpress-blocks-editor-600x351.jpg 600w, https:\/\/elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/aino-wordpress-blocks-editor-1200x703.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/aino-wordpress-blocks-editor-720x422.jpg 720w, https:\/\/elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/aino-wordpress-blocks-editor-768x450.jpg 768w, https:\/\/elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/aino-wordpress-blocks-editor-1070x627.jpg 1070w, https:\/\/elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/aino-wordpress-blocks-editor-150x88.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The following blocks are already available in the beta version of the <strong>Aino Block Collection<\/strong> plugin:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2705 Card<br \/>\n\u2705 Author<br \/>\n\u2705 Testimonial<br \/>\n\u2705 Featured Content<br \/>\n\u2705 Advanced Buttons<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the next releases we will add the blocks: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hero<br \/>\nImage &amp; Text<br \/>\nIcon<br \/>\nSlider<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s important to note that you don\u2019t need to use the Aino blocks in combination with the Aino theme. You can also use the blocks with any other available themes and we will work on improving the support for other themes in the upcoming weeks and months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is coming next?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our next step is to prepare the Aino theme and our Aino blocks for WordPress.org. It will take a little while until they will be available there, but we will keep you informed about the progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will also be working on other features for both the theme and the blocks. Therefore we are especially looking forward to your feedback, so we can start building the features you are looking for. We are also working on a website for our Aino projects as well as first demos and documentations, so you can better see what is possible to build with our new theme and blocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Questions, Feedback and Communication<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To be able to better communicate with you, we have created a Slack workspace. You can find it under <a href=\"https:\/\/wpaino.slack.com\/\">ainodesign.slack.com<\/a>. You can join using the following <a href=\"https:\/\/join.slack.com\/t\/ainodesign\/shared_invite\/zt-9yvwt8ac-aZ2bLY9wpmwSimPjVLfqmw\"> WP Aino invite link<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can ask questions or create issues and bug reports directly in <strong>Github Issues<\/strong> or ask us via <strong>Slack<\/strong> or here on the blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From now on I will also publish regular smaller update notes here on the blog and via our newsletter, so that you can easily stay up-to-date with the progress we are making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I hope you are looking forward to try out our new theme and our first set of Gutenberg blocks. We can\u2019t wait to hear your feedback. We are looking forward to your questions and suggestions on how to improve our work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Aino Theme Overview After collecting initial feedback for our new Aino WordPress theme and Aino Gutenberg Block Collection over the last weeks, we finally want to share the public beta versions of our latest projects with you.
