Authors List Block

A WordPress block that outputs a list of post authors.

Theme Support

Styles (theme.json)

The block supports the full array of design tools available, so you can also style these just like most other Core WordPress blocks via styles.blocks.x3p0/authors in theme.json. Here's an example:

{
	"styles": {
		"blocks": {
			"x3p0/authors": {
				"color": {
					"text": "var(--wp--custom--color--foreground--default)"
				},
				"typography": {
					"fontSize": "var(--wp--preset--font-size--md)",
					"lineHeight": "var(--wp--custom--line-height--md)"
				}
			}
		}
	}
}

Custom Block Stylesheet

An alternative to the theme.json method (or in addition to), you can load a block-specific stylesheet and work with plain ol' CSS. Here's an example of loading a themeslug/public/css/blocks/x3p0-authors.css stylesheet:

add_action('init', function() {
	wp_enqueue_block_style('x3p0/authors', [
		'handle' => 'themeslug-block-x3p0-authors',
		'src'    => get_theme_file_uri('public/css/blocks/x3p0-authors.css'),
		'path'   => get_theme_file_path('public/css/blocks/x3p0-authors.css')
	]);
});

And some CSS to overwrite the default custom CSS properties:

.wp-block-x3p0-authors {
	/* Write some custom CSS. */
}
