Dividers

Horizontal divider with optional icon, style variants, alignment, width presets, and scroll-to link support. It is shown in the block inserter as Canvas Divider and registered as canvas-core/divider.

Select the block on a page and its own settings open in the sidebar, in the panels below:

Settings

Each setting is named exactly as the block editor names it, followed by what it does and what it starts as. Where a setting carries a Shown when line, it stays hidden until that condition is met, which is the usual reason a setting looks missing from the sidebar:

Content

• IconDefaultbi bi-circle-fill

  The icon that sits in the break in the rule.

  Shown when Style is "Default (Icon)" or "Rounded (Circle Background)" or "Bordered (Outline)"

• Icon LinkDefaultEmpty

  Wrap the icon in a link. Use #id for scroll-to behavior.

  Shown when Style is "Default (Icon)" or "Rounded (Circle Background)" or "Bordered (Outline)"

• Smooth-Scroll TargetDefaultEmpty

  The in-page anchor the icon scrolls to. The link keeps its own URL, so a "back to the index" rule can point at a section without also becoming that section's permalink.

  Shown when Style is "Default (Icon)" or "Rounded (Circle Background)" or "Bordered (Outline)"

• Link TargetDefaultEmpty

  Whether the icon link opens in the same tab or a new one.

• Style

  Choose None when the framework supplies the whole class list itself (a .dropdown-divider inside a dropdown menu, for example), no base class and no Canvas width/margin modifiers are added.

  Default: Default (Icon). Choices: Default (Icon), Rounded (Circle Background), Bordered (Outline), Divider Line (Icon Gap), Section Line (Plain Rule), Section Line (Double Rule), Horizontal Rule (bare

  ), None (no base class).

Settings

• Icon AlignmentDefaultLeft

  Where the icon sits along the rule, and so where the rule breaks.

  ChoicesLeftCenterRightShown when Style is "Default (Icon)" or "Rounded (Circle Background)" or "Bordered (Outline)"

• WidthDefaultFull Width (100%)

  How far the rule runs across the space it sits in. A short rule reads as a flourish under a heading rather than a break between sections.

  ChoicesFull Width (100%)Small (55%)Extra Small (35%)

• Thick BorderDefaultOff

  Use a 3px border instead of 1px.

• Large MarginDefaultOff

  Increase vertical spacing (5rem instead of 3rem).
