Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. acquisition value

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    I activated it and photos in my blog suddenly disappeared. I tested many plugins but this plugin did it. Don’t use it until it updates again about it. This topic was modified 6 years, 9 months ago by kingpin123.

    This plugin is very easy to use, and allows me to create stock calls to action for my posts (Patreon and Ko-Fi links, that sort of thing), along with some reasonable formatting. I haven’t particularly done anything complicated with the software yet, so we’ll see how things go when if I end up doing something more involved later. I may revisit this review at that time.

    I installed Easy Blocks because I needed a way to get subtitles working, without using the standard title blocks. After some time searching for a plugin that could do the work and would not fail with Gutenberg, I came over Easy Blocks, and it looked “good enough” to do the job. Trying it, yes, it does what it promises. However, I stumbled over two minor “problems” along the way. For one I had a workaround, but an official solution would have been nice, for the other well I could have lived with it. Anyway, I figured to contact the support via the chat function on the website. Within minutes I had someone to chat with, who promised to look into it, and within two hours I had an email with the solutions for my problems (one will be fixed with a new block being released potentially next week). So thumbs up for this plugin/Gutenberg extension and the team around it!
