Improve the print stylesheet throughout WordPress.org #158

Closed ndiego closed 1 month ago

ndiego commented 2 months ago

The print styles throughout WordPress.org (the sections powered by this parent theme) are pretty rough. It would be worthwhile to make some subtle improvements, much like https://github.com/WordPress/wporg-news-2021/issues/427

I've added a general print stylesheet for the network. I focused on the About & Download subpages (including release pages, which should cascade to all pages), documentation articles & developer handbook articles, code reference pages, and developer blog articles. I also added some specific styles to main for the w.org homepage and "About" page.

I also added a class, wporg__hide-on-print, which can be used to hide elements when printing.

A quick check shows that Five for the Future inherits styles nicely. The showcase & directories do too, but if we need to really support printing these they'll need a little more help.

Forums has a few glitches in printing (thread lists and individual posts), should that be updated too?

There's an extra step to deploy this out to Events since it's on the WordCamp infrastructure, so that's not quite right ATM. I'm following up on that.

Let me know if anything looks off, or if I should iterate on any other sections.

Thanks for all your work on this. The wporg__hide-on-print class is great. Then, we can use this in the Editor as needed.

I don't think so. I cannot imagine people printing forum threads.

Do you think we can close this issue, or are there any places where the styles still need work?

I did some spot checks and it looks really good, thanks @ryelle. I'll close this out, and if any other isolated issues pop up, we can address them separately.
