This plugin is awesome – thank you so much! It is very easy to use and simple to create a custom template of the block.

Tyler Tork September 4, 2020

Tried single post mode. Doesn’t have any options to select display layout. Doesn’t use featured image. Makes the entire text — excerpt included — a hyperlink with default formatting. Ugly as sin.

Very useful plugin. Technical support is fast and efficient!

With this plugin, you can customise the display for posts and pages lists, just as you did edit with the traditional php template. I was able to control the display/hide of thumbnail images in posts and pages lists within BLOCK! Amazing! このプラグインがあれば、従来のphpテンプレート編集と同じように、投稿や固定ページのリスト表示をカスタマイズできます。これで固定ページと投稿のサムネイル画像の表示/非表示を、ブロックの中でコントロールできました。すんばらしい！
