Description (last modified by mrfoxtalbot)

Pasting code in Gutenberg is not working consistently at the moment. This is being addressed upstream https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/38064 and there is a PR in place https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/38183

While this gets fixed, I would like to suggest using the "Code Block" in the message that users see when they open a new thread (see screenshot).

This is not an ideal solution, but it might help users who are confused by the fact that they cannot paste code AT ALL.

Reopening for discussion of the message itself. What does the "code block" in your proposed message link to?

I was thinking it should link to the support article for the Code Block:
https://wordpress.org/support/article/code-block/

Thank you, @Otto42.
