PublishPress Blocks Version 3.0 is Here

PublishPress Blocks is one of the most popular plugins we offer, with over 30,000 active users.

PublishPress Blocks has tools to help improve the Gutenberg editor. You'll find extra blocks, options to control who can use each block, and the ability to easily add CSS to each block.

We've just released version 3.0 of PublishPress Blocks. This update has a new interface that closely matches the other PublishPress plugins. This update also introduces the foundations of more key improvements in future releases, particularly around the “Block Controls” features.

I'll give you a quick guide to the changes you see when you install the new version of PublishPress Blocks.


New Feature: Dashboard

Because PublishPress Blocks has several different features, we wanted an easy way for users to find them all, and disable any they don't need. The new “Dashboard” screen has a one-click feature to enable or disable each key feature.
