PublishPress Blocks Pro

Build pages and manage block use

PublishPress Blocks Pro extends the WordPress block editor with extra blocks and tools for publishing processes. Block Permissions let you select which visitor roles can use selected blocks, including default WordPress blocks. Block Controls set when and under what conditions visitors see blocks, such as by role, schedule, device, screen size, or day of the week.

Pro blocks and layouts

The Pro edition includes a Countdown block for an event or scheduled occasion, a Feature List block for entries included with a product or service, and a Pricing Table block for purchase or subscription settings. It also adds Google Fonts support to selected core blocks, including paragraph and heading blocks.

The wider PublishPress Blocks collection has more than 20 extra blocks, including accordions, galleries, sliders, tabs, maps, tables, recent posts, buttons, columns, contact forms, pictures, videos, and WooCommerce product displays. The WooCommerce block offers Grid and Slider views.

Content Display can show posts, pages, or other content in Grid, Frontpage, List, Newspaper, Masonry, and Slider layouts. Filter items by author, category, or tag, and choose details such as posted or updated dates, images, authors, excerpts, intro text, and comments.

Visibility rules and publishing tools

Block Controls can use conditions such as browser, operating system, cookies, user or post meta, query string, capabilities, term archives, and specific pages, as well as user role, schedule, device type, and device width. Block Styles let you define custom CSS styles that editors can apply to blocks.

Block Usage scans website content to find where blocks appear. Reusable Blocks provides a central place to access and edit reusable content, while Auto-Insert Blocks can place reusable blocks in posts according to position, categories, tags, or other criteria.

Using PublishPress Blocks Pro

Install the plugin on a WordPress site, open a post or page in the block editor, and add a block to the layout. Configure its content and styling, then set permissions or visibility conditions as needed. Management screens provide access to reusable blocks, block usage, styles, and automatic insertion options. PublishPress Blocks Pro is an upgrade to the free PublishPress Blocks plugin and includes faster support alongside additional capabilities.
