Block Revealer

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 44% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

   Not only is it installed on all my websites, it’s also created by a nice person. A must have that does what it says! 👌

   Reveals the blocks invisible lines better than what the EditorsKit does (way better), BUT, you have to make sure that you use the key. shortcut while you have not selected any block, otherwise the shortcut will also change that selected block’s alignment to the right. Maybe having a different shortcut would be another way to go, or even better, a button instead on the top toolbar. Otherwise, excellent plugin, I am sticking to the 5 stars, Thanks.

   For reasons that are difficult to understand, Gutenberg devs have decided to gradually remove any kind of block outline. This plugin brings back this necessary feature. Thanks.

   Saves so much time and makes the editing/building so much easier. I found this just when I needed it. Thanks so much Maxime.

   Thanks Maxime, your plugin saves me a lot of time. It doesn’t seem to be a big deal, but these few borders improve the editor interface a lot. Maybe one day in core… ? 🙂 Just a little note: I searched a while before finding the keyboard shortcut to use to activate the feature. Maybe the information would be welcome directly in the plugin description.

   Even if the block editor UI is getting better and better, this keyboard shortcup is still super useful. Thanks Maxime 👍
