New Patterns: Headers, Footers, Link in Bio, and More
The newest additions to our Pattern library include headers and footers, link-in-bio designs, and more.
Have you used Patterns on your site yet?
These prebuilt, customizable templates combine professionally-designed blocks for specific uses like stylized quotes, contact page layouts, and product listings. But that’s just the beginning. All told, we have more than 260 Patterns you can insert into your pages and posts at the press of a button.
If you’ve never used Patterns before, they’re like any other site element: Access them by hitting the “+” button at the top left of the page or post you’re working on, then selecting the “Patterns” tab. You can also click on the “Explore” button to bring up our entire library of Patterns, organized by category.

Think of them as sophisticated slices of web design for your posts and pages. You can drop them in as-is, or customize them to your liking. Even better, we’re adding more all the time.
Here are just a few of the most recent arrivals to the Pattern library.
Headers and Footers
One of the most common questions our Happiness Engineers hear from users is how to customize a site’s header and footer areas. One way to easily and efficiently do that? Patterns. Note: Be sure to add these patterns to your header and footer template parts, which are found in the Site Editor (Appearance → Editor). A single update or change here will apply across all pages.

Link in Bio Patterns
We’ve added a number of stunning Patterns for your link-in-bio pages and sites. Pick one, customize as desired, add your links, and you’ve got a brand new way to let your readers know what’s new.
Explore All of Our Patterns!
Even if you don’t have a specific need in mind, take a look around the full Patterns library. Galleries, contact pages, subscribe boxes, quotes: with so many options, you’re sure to find something that adds a fresh new wrinkle to your site.

Patterns can be an incredibly useful resource for your design toolbox. Customize, experiment, and turn inspiration into eye-catching reality.

And be sure to let us know in the comments how you’ve used Patterns on your site and any ideas you have for new ones. We’re always working on more — so stay tuned!

Hi Adam, the problem I am having is that I am able to login using my current email address and password on iPad or iPhone but it does not work on my PC. The reply I am getting is that my account does not exist. I don’t think changing my password will help in this case.

Are you trying to log in to https://wordpress.org/ or to your own website? If it’s the former, then you can reset your password though this form: https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword
If you can’t log in to your site, please let me know its address so I can point you in the right direction to get support.

Have you created an account at WordPress.org? Its login and password won’t be the same as your WordPress.com credentials, or the same as /wp-admin for any WordPress installations you’re running. It will be totally separate, so if you did not create one there, you’ll need to do that now.

Thank you!! I found that sometimes WP shows changes we can make with PlugIns, but I “think” you need to have a Business Plan to use the Plug-Ins. Are the patterns similar to the Plug-Ins? Are Plug-Ins more advanced. I’m confused.

@brilliantviewpoint – Block patterns are not plugins – they’re patterns you can use with any block-based theme on any plan level. You can read more about them here:
https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/block-pattern/
Plugins are tools that add extra features to your WordPress site – those are the things you need to upgrade to a Business plan to use:
https://wordpress.com/support/plugins/install-a-plugin/
I hope that clarifies things!

You sent in a request to the WordPress mobile app support team on October 6 and they replied to you on October 12. I don’t see any other support requests under your account, so check your Gmail for that response.
Of note: the support email reply may be in one of the Gmail tabs (Social, Promotions, etc) or the Spam folder.
Since your website ukpops.com is not hosted here at WordPress.com and the problem is with your stats on the mobile app, we’re not able to troubleshoot this issue with you. Please find and respond to the open support request you already have with the mobile support team.
Thanks!

Bring back the old reader format…unless there’s a setting I can use for the larger “info” and more photos like there used to be on the main page.

The reader page used to take up more space across the screen and display up to 5 pics from the blogs below the name with the title. Now there is only one picture or a small block of photos and what seems to be tags above the photo or name of the post. I guess I’m wondering why they would change this as well as if they are just trying it out maybe.

Patterns take too long to preview on the explore page. If there was an option to add to favorites, we could avoid getting lost among many patterns.
