Overview

GenerateBlocks Pro gives you a focused set of blocks for arranging content and building page layouts in the WordPress block editor. Use containers to organize sections, grids to create responsive structures, and buttons, headlines, and images to complete a page. The Query Loop block can display posts from custom post types, with layouts you can adjust for the content and site.

Design controls cover typography, spacing, borders, colors, gradients, and background images. Device-level settings let you adjust designs for mobile, tablet, and desktop. Global Styles and Design Tokens provide workspaces for organizing reusable design choices, while patterns can include the tokens they use. The plugin suits sites that need tailored layouts, from blogs to ecommerce sites and other custom WordPress projects.

Features

  • Flexible content blocks: Build page sections with containers, then add headlines, buttons, and images. Static or dynamic content options support different page needs.
  • Responsive grid layouts: Arrange content in responsive grids with flexbox controls, giving you options for shaping page structures across screen sizes.
  • Custom post displays: Use the Query Loop block to display posts from custom post types and adjust the layout to suit the content.
  • Detailed design controls: Set typography, padding, margins, borders, colors, gradients, and background image size and position from the editor.
  • Global design workspaces: Organize and edit Global Styles and Design Tokens in the editor or Design dashboard. Import and export these design settings.
  • Device-level adjustments: Set design controls for mobile, tablet, and desktop so page layouts and styling can be adjusted for each device size.

  • WordPress blogs with custom page layouts
