Biggest opportunity: Swap “block” for “grab”. “block” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “grab” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 2K of 34.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Blocks plugin keeps 2.1%, across 1,577 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Blocks plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

What to do about it
- Swap “block” for “grab”. “block” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “grab” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “flip box”. #13 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

I love the plugin and it basically does what I want it to. I had an issue with a recent update to WordPress, and their support team got right on it and fixed the issue. The only thing I’d improve is a global settings options – so I don’t have to individually format all the flipboxes unless I want to. Otherwise, I love it.

Great simple and amazing flip effect. Lovely Gutenberg block, with complete and fine tuning, and fully functional out of the box !

The plugin does what it says on the box. The big advantage is that this is one of the very few flipbox plugins working natively with Gutenberg.

So my initial review was positive, four stars … as I’ve reviewed a ton of “collections”, all the major block collections, there was nothing like this. Basically, you mouse over like putting your hand over a card on a table, and it turns around to show you what is on the back. When you take your mouse away, it goes back to the first “page”. Great for “revealing” information and I could see lots of people using it for quizzes actually. The flipbox options include: – height/width; – style of transition (flip or zoom); – fonts, gradients, etc. My only quibbles are you have to enter the text / content into the block options window to the side, not directly edited on screen AND it seems to only have a mouseover option rather than a click to flip. Pretty solid though. Update: A few weeks later, my site is running dirt slow, and it’s not clear why but particularly noticeable on a long post with tables running, and NO flipbox running. But 3 .css files were giving 404 errors and causing significant performance problems. They are: fonticonpicker.base-theme.react.css, fonticonpicker.material-theme.react.css, and font-awesome5.css, all coming from this plugin. Got rid of the plugin, everything is back to normal. P.
