Theme Detail: Two links to the site editor for active themes is momentarily confusing #96149

Open dsas opened 6 days ago

Quick summary

If the active theme has style variations available there are two identical ways to enter the site editor - the big blue 'Customize site' button and also a sentence saying 'Open the site editor to change your site's style'.

It feels a bit confusing - what's the difference between the site editor and customizing my site? Until you realise that the links go to the same place.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Activate a theme that has style variations
  2. Go to Appearance → Themes, find the theme again in the grid and click it

What you expected to happen

To have one way to enter the site editor, though perhaps two ways is fine if they both use the same wording.

It would perhaps be ideal if I could change my style directly from this page, though that brings baggage like easy undo, possibly upgrade warnings etc.

Perhaps a small improvement would be to move the text closer to the styles, and more closely mirror the wording in the button: Image

What actually happened

Two ways of entering the site editor are on screen - a button and the link
