WordPress 7.0 introduces Customizable Navigation Overlays, allowing full control over mobile menu design using blocks and patterns. Previously, users had no ability to customize mobile navigation overlays, forcing them to accept default styling without branding, calls-to-action, or layout control. The new feature saves overlays as reusable template parts, enabling custom designs with any blocks, multiple variations, and theme-specific implementations. The WordPress community is invited to test the feature before February 9, 2026, with particular focus on usability, edge cases, and technical implementation decisions around HTML markup placement for SEO and accessibility considerations.
