Description
Rockon Blocks adds simple, good-looking content blocks to the WordPress block editor, so you can make your posts easier to scan without touching code.
Included blocks
- Pros & Cons Box – show the good and the bad side by side. Stacks neatly on mobile.
- Key Takeaways Card – summarize the most important points of a post.
- Callout Box – draw attention to a tip or note (info style).
- Review Summary Box – close a review with a 5-star rating (half stars supported) and a final verdict.
Why Rockon Blocks?
- No build tools, no bloat – only a few KB of CSS and JS.
- Lightweight CSS and JS – the editor script only loads in the block editor.
- Change font size, background color, text color and border from the block settings.
- No ads, and nothing is sent anywhere unless you choose to opt in.
Rockon Blocks Pro
Rockon Blocks Pro is an optional add-on that installs alongside this plugin. It adds:
- Product Review Card – product image, overall score, per-feature rating bars and affiliate buy buttons.
- Comparison Table – compare products side by side, with a highlighted “best pick” column, buy buttons and a mobile-friendly layout.
- Gradient backgrounds, dashed, dotted and double borders, box shadows and rounded corners for every block.
- Callout styles (success, warning, danger and note) with custom icons.
- Extra layouts: stacked or minimal Pros & Cons, numbered or checkmark Key Takeaways, centered Review Summary.
Get it from Rockon Blocks Add-Ons in your dashboard. Your existing blocks keep working whether or not you install it.
External services
Freemius
The plugin bundles the Freemius SDK, provided by Freemius, Inc. It powers the Add-Ons screen inside your dashboard, the optional account connection, and the licensing for the separately distributed Rockon Blocks Pro add-on. No block depends on it: every block works in full whether or not you ever connect.
Nothing at all is transmitted unless you accept the opt-in prompt or make a purchase. If you do opt in, Freemius receives your site URL, your WordPress, PHP and plugin versions, the administrator’s name and email address, and a list of active plugins and themes. This happens at the moment you opt in, and periodically afterwards to check for add-on updates. You can opt out at any time from the plugin’s Account screen.

FAQ
-
Does it work with any theme?
-
Yes. The blocks use their own self-contained styles and work with classic and block themes.
-
Can I change the colors?
-
Yes. Every block has background color, text color and border color/width settings in the block sidebar. Rockon Blocks Pro adds gradients, border styles, shadows, rounded corners, callout styles with custom icons and extra layouts.
-
What happens to my content if I remove Pro?
-
Nothing is lost. Blocks styled with Pro options stay valid and keep their content; they simply go back to the free look. Product Review Cards and Comparison Tables need Pro to be edited, but their content stays in your posts.
-
Does it collect any data?
-
Not unless you agree to it. On activation you are asked whether to share some basic information to help improve the plugin; skip it and nothing is ever sent. The plugin itself only stores which blocks you have switched off on the Rockon Blocks settings page, and removes that setting when you delete the plugin. See “External services” below for the details.
