I really love it and whole-heartedly recommend it. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/2794b9a3cf41aa07d8ba0ced0219b77d7e2c9a6aa4d9889b784a4a0125260595? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[A must-have for me](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-must-have-for-me-2/)󠁿 [Alvaro Gois dos Santos](https://profiles.wordpress.org/alvarogois/) 26, Ochobre de 2024 1 reply Thank you for developing this much needed helper for those of us that struggle with the block editor UI/UX. I’m glad it’s still being developed. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d46006b4017f007537a2c0dcf966ca7b3a5e0a3c89d2c15a569596da7329d561? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Makes the Block Editor useful](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/makes-the-block-editor-useful/)󠁿 [Anthony Hortin](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ahortin/) 18, Abril de 2023 Great plugin. Thanks for creating this. This is the only plugin I’ve seen that actually makes the block editor less painful to use. No more guessing where blocks start and end, or struggling with trying to select blocks or their containers. This is how the Block Editor UI should’ve been all along. 👍👍 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/061ec5c4e043371a9ce9e2ef0a6339a5d55dcd8a61c1e3d999914ed11746d802? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Important extension for Gutenberg](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/important-extension-for-gutenberg/)󠁿 [Orlandoo](https://profiles.wordpress.org/orlandoo/) 24, Xineru de 2022 1 reply Installed, works. It’s that simple. And you get an excellent overview over the blocks you use on your page. Using Gutenberg would definetly be less fun without this plugin. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d910fdd7595ec843abbd6e3977b31c74c60f2115eb0a4766022b7d137ec21814? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[The missing part in Gutenberg core](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-missing-part-in-gutenberg-core/)󠁿 [Sven Wagener](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mahype/) 22, Setiembre de 2021 1 reply Thanks for this Plugin! I miss this definitely in core. As good Gutenberg and the idea of it is, navigation beetween blocks is one of the really bad parts in Gutenberg at the moment. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/91c556caade5b03b25fa1d4538eb099c3b0017e0de2f7906b6250f90a5e77b98? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Time saver for sure! Kudos to the developer](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/time-saver-for-sure-kudos-to-the-developer/)󠁿 [layerwp](https://profiles.wordpress.org/lyrwp/) 20, Xunetu de 2021 Installed and tested works like a charm. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for, I’m constantly losing track of what block is what, having a way to highlight blocks is a game changer. Honestly this needs to be part of the core for Block Editor, if you’re into Gutenberg, and build sites with it, this is a must. Trust me when I say, this will save you so much time!!!
