Overview

About this plugin

Aploblocks adds extra design features to the core wordpress blocks. It is designed for block themes and helps you achieve incredible designs with very little effort. If you know how to use the block editor then you will know how to use AploBlocks.

The growing library of patterns can be added straight in to your design to help you quickly start building beautiful sites.

Some of the features below give you an indication of just what you can achieve with absolutely no coding experience.

  • **Pattern inserter – Add ready made patterns straight in to your design.
  • Entrance Animations: 18 (and growing) options for on-scroll animations with custom speed and delay settings
  • Sticky Header: Make your header template part sticky with the option to hide on scroll.
  • Block Styles: New styles to display cover block content on hover.
  • Filters: Change images to how you want them to look, options for blur, brightness, contrast, opacity, hue & saturation. Configure a filter to be added or removed on hover.
  • Shadow Filter: Customise the offset, blur, opacity & colour of a blocks shadow. Options to add or remove on hover.
