Disable Unused Block Editor Blocks

Beskrivning

Disable Unused Block Editor Blocks is a must-have tool for any WordPress website built with Gutenberg Block Editor.
Manage your blocks and enable or disable any block globally.

But how would you know which block you can disable?
What if you disable something that is used somewhere and it will break your website layout?
No worries!
This plugin will show you which block is already used in any post, page, custom post type or even in widgets and sidebars, so you can easily decide if it is safe to disable that block.

  • list of all blocks with their icons, titles, names and descriptions divided into categories
  • globally enable or disable any block
  • works with reusable or nested blocks and even with blocks used in widget areas
  • works with custom blocks, any additional block plugins and even with blocks created with Advanced Custom Fields (ACF)
  • see whether the block is used somewhere, so you will never disable wrong block and break something on your website

PRO version features (BUY HERE):

  • see a detailed usage report – where exactly is the block used and you can directly visit or edit that post
  • see all styles and variations for every single block
  • work with groups – group blocks by category, activation status or usage status
  • enable or disable all blocks in a group with a single click
  • search and filter blocks by name, title or description
  • change post statuses applied for usage status detection – in free version it is set to publish, future, draft, pending and private
  • export and import settings
  • force disable blocks defined in theme disabled_blocks.json file

I've tried more plugins for disabling Gutenberg Blocks and despite all having similar UI, this plugin is by far the best. Showing what blocks are enabled (so you don't disable existing blocks) is a big time-saver. Ability to export all disabled blocks into json so you can reuse the same list in all your child themes? That's just brilliant.

I'm using greenshift and their blocks blow other 3rd party or theme blocks and the core blocks out of the water. Now I can hide all the lame ones. Do I really need 3 heading blocks?

The indication "in use" is a plus. Plugin very well built, and very useful when you want to restrict the number of blocks for the final writer.

A lot of block packs do not include a way to disable their blocks, so this fills a nice void!
