Disable Patterns

A Theme Settings page provides greater control over design. From this panel, users can enable or disable patterns by color and by category, streamlining what appears in the Block Inserter and Site Editor.

In WP admin, go to Appearance > Powder to view Theme Settings.

Disable Patterns by Color

Disabling patterns in Powder by color can be done by adding a few lines of code to the functions.php file of a child theme. This allows developers to control which patterns are available to users in the Block Inserter and Site Editor, providing flexibility and customization over site design.
