Plugin removing dashboard background grey
-
Hi I notice that when this plugin is activated the background colour of the dash board on several pages is removed. This may be a bug or intentional and not such a problem on Gutenberg pages as they are styled white anyway. But, on classic editor pages this is a nuisance as #f1f1f1 marks out the boundaries between metaboxes and makes them easier to locate visually when working in a data entry workflow.
The fact that the new block editor uses the all white appearance is one of my criticisms of it, not good for large inventories and data entry on a large scale.

Great stuff.
I am currently only using the new bock editor on a test site to see what can be done with it. From the Republic of Ireland it feels a bit like Brexit. Borders are an issue, there is a transition period till 2021 for the current status quo, and the backstop might be time limited, classic is removed.
Only kidding!
In fact I have been the new editor to see what interesting things can be done with it. There are some nice block options out there from developers like yourself. As a foundation WordPress now has quite a lot to offer for new users before moving up a page builder. But even then I have been able to use the two together and I can see how adding block into the mix of page builders is possible.
Your plugins all white scenario on the dashboard got me thinking. I alluded to the design that is possible using Toolset for CPTs and how this is good for data entry. So I did a bit of customisation of my own to make the block editor look like classic.
This works quite well so I see plenty of workarounds in the future to integrate the block editor into older workflows. So a good days work.
Cheers
