What?

Lowers the CSS specificity for the File and Search Block selectors

Why?

The high specificity of these selectors are overriding the newest addition to the elements API (the buttons), pointed out here and here.

How?

I'm trying to remove unneeded selectors and used :where when I wasn't sure about what I could remove without breaking other stuff

Testing Instructions

I've tested this using emptytheme, with the following markup:

<!-- wp:buttons -->
<div class="wp-block-buttons"><!-- wp:button -->
<div class="wp-block-button"><a class="wp-block-button__link wp-element-button">Fill Button</a></div>
<!-- /wp:button -->

<!-- wp:button {"className":"is-style-outline"} -->
<div class="wp-block-button is-style-outline"><a class="wp-block-button__link wp-element-button">Outline Button</a></div>
<!-- /wp:button --></div>
<!-- /wp:buttons -->

<!-- wp:search {"label":"Search","buttonText":"Search"} /-->

<!-- wp:search {"label":"Search","buttonText":"Search","buttonUseIcon":true} /-->

<!-- wp:search {"label":"Search","buttonText":"Search","buttonPosition":"button-inside"} /-->

<!-- wp:search {"label":"Search","buttonText":"Search","buttonPosition":"button-inside","buttonUseIcon":true} /-->

<!-- wp:file {"id":23,"href":"http://maggie.local/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Screenshot-2022-05-13-at-13.10.27.png"} -->
<div class="wp-block-file"><a id="wp-block-file--media-4fff6e6c-0ba4-4897-9486-9c2bfc9e36f6" href="http://maggie.local/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Screenshot-2022-05-13-at-13.10.27.png">Screenshot 2022-05-13 at 13.10.27</a><a href="http://maggie.local/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Screenshot-2022-05-13-at-13.10.27.png" class="wp-block-file__button wp-element-button" download aria-describedby="wp-block-file--media-4fff6e6c-0ba4-4897-9486-9c2bfc9e36f6">Download</a></div>
<!-- /wp:file -->

And in the theme.json file I have this:

"styles": {
      "elements": {
	      "button": {
		      "border": {
			      "radius": "4px"
		      },
		      "color": {
			      "background": "blue",
			      "text": "yellow"
		      },
		      "typography": {
			      "fontSize": "22px",
			      "fontWeight": "strong",
			      "lineHeight": "2",
			      "textDecoration": "none"
		      },
		      "spacing": {
			      "padding": {
				      "top": "2em",
				      "bottom": "2em",
				      "left": "4em",
				      "right": "4em"
			      }
		      }
	      }
      }
 }

This works for me when using emptytheme and those theme.json settings 👍 I think the use of :where works well here too.

🧇 great! @MaggieCabrera can we add a comment for

* + .wp-block-file__button and :where(.wp-block-search__button-inside .wp-block-search__inside-wrapper) explaining how we want to lower specificity and for what reason? Given someone may come back to this months later it's easy to no understand what's up with this solution.

Similar to how we do here in the paragraph block.

I´m not changing * + .wp-block-file__button, just moving .wp-block-file__button outside of .wp-block-file, but the diff is picking it as if I changed all the code. I added the comment on the other change though, to make it clearer

Could the Search block's wrapper have a higher specificity?

As noted on Trac 60164, the old CSS reset removed border and padding on any div element, which would override :where(.wp-block-search__button-inside .wp-block-search__inside-wrapper) in many themes.

Using two elements could be enough:

:where(.wp-block-search__button-inside .wp-block-search__inside-wrapper) {
	// a little more specific than one element selector for wrapper styles
	html body & {
		padding: $grid-unit-05;
		border: 1px solid $gray-600;
		box-sizing: border-box;
	}
}
