Block support: Align

Last updated March 13, 2025.

The align block supports include none (which is the default content width set by the theme, centered in the editor), left, right, center, wide, and full width.
Align is opt-in, and you can enable the alignments individually.

At this time, there is no known way to remove align none, even by filtering the block supports.

To enable all alignments in your custom block, set the value of supports > align to true:

"supports": {
		"align": true
	}

To only enable some of the alignments, you can use an array of strings with the alignment name:

"supports": {
		"align": [ "wide", "full" ]
	}

Lastly, the alignment block supports also include alignWide, which I believe is a “left over” from before the block supports were moved from the index file to block.json.
alignWide is used to enable or disable wide align. It defaults to true. It is currently only used inside the site logo, avatar, and button. These blocks first enable all alignments, and then removes wide, instead of using the array described above:

"supports": {
		"align": false,
		"alignWide": false
	}

Blocks that supports align:

Many text based blocks only support wide and full because they have a separate text align setting that positions the text to the left, right and center.

Blocks with partial support:

• Pullquote supports left, right, wide and full but not center.
• Search supports align left, center and right, but not wide or full because it has a separate width setting that uses percentages.
• Social icons supports align left, center and right.
• Separator supports align center, wide, and full.
