Installation

Upload the 16deza-block-curator folder to /wp-content/plugins/
Activate 16Deza Block Curator from the WordPress admin Plugins screen
Settings -> Block Curator: Configure the blocks to restrict

Exempt administrator users from restrictions
Checking “Exempt administrators from restrictions” allows users with manage_options privileges (administrators) to use all blocks regardless of the settings.
If you have also granted administrator privileges to clients, unchecking this box will enable block restrictions.

Enabling/Disabling Blocks

Checked (blue) = Enabled (displayed in the editor)
Unchecked (gray) = Disabled (hidden in the editor)
By default, all are enabled.

FAQ

When is this effective ?: Having too many types of blocks that can be inserted (especially for users unfamiliar with WordPress) can be confusing. The more options there are, the harder it becomes to find what you need — a dilemma.
If you are a web developer, you can improve usability for your clients by adjusting the settings to match their IT proficiency, removing unnecessary options and leaving only the essential blocks.
To give an analogy, only a limited number of people can master a console that’s like an aircraft cockpit, full of instruments and buttons, but a console like that in a private car is something everyone can intuitively understand and use.
All blocks are displayed in the edit screen even after configuration.: If you are an administrator user, please check if the “Exempt administrators from restrictions” option at the top of the settings screen is checked.
