Biggest opportunity: Swap “block” and “content” for “reusable content” and “reusable”. “block” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “reusable content” sits at #17 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “content” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “reusable” sits at #24 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

6.8%

of downloads still active

At least 1K of 14.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Blocks plugin keeps 2.1%, across 1,580 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 1 release 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.

    It seems that this plugin doesn’t register its content (template type) well. And because of that it doesn’t work with AddToAny plugin.

    The Blocksy theme gives the opportunity to customize some features before and after the content but prevent you to choose the order of eventual additional content you may try to add in these places. This plugin is pretty cool as you can add all the blocks you need in the order and composition you need.

    Great plugin! Would it be possible to add Polylang support? Multiple languages show up but don’t apply on page. Thank you for your consideration! 🙂

    This plugin is very straightforward and allows you to design before & after sections for your posts and pages. I have used it to provide an article feedback section that would otherwise have been a compromise to pull off. The settings page is nicely placed in the Appearance section. All good :o)

    I tried a function to add affiliate/privacy info to blog posts only, but it was showing on my product pages, where I didn’t want. This allowed me to select blog posts only, and leave the info off pages and products. Perfect! Thank you for the easy to use plugin!
