## Descripción

The **HTML5 Semantic Elements** plugin introduces two custom Gutenberg blocks — 
_Article_ and _Aside_ — that allow you to structure your WordPress content with 
proper semantic HTML5 elements.

Use the **Article block** for self-contained content such as blog posts or news 
items, and the **Aside block** for related or supplementary information such as 
sidebars, pull quotes, or callouts.

These semantic elements improve both **SEO** and **accessibility** by clearly defining
the roles of different content sections.

### How to Use

 2. Click the “+” button to add a new block
 3. Search for “Article” or “Aside”
 4. Click the desired block to insert it into your content

### Article Block

The Article block creates an HTML5 `<article>` element, ideal for:

News articles – Forum posts – Comments – Independent, self-contained content

and Full alignment support – Custom CSS classes – Anchor ID support – “Remove Article”
button to unwrap the block while keeping its inner content

 – Sidebars – Pull
quotes – Related content – Callout boxes – Supplementary information

**Features**

ID support – Transform paragraphs, headings, lists, or quotes into Asides – “Remove
Aside” button to unwrap the content

**Transforming existing blocks**

list, quote, pullquote, or group) 2. Click the block icon or three-dot menu 3. Choose“
Transform to”  “Aside”

**Removing the Aside wrapper**

    ```
