የተለመዱ ጥያቄዎች
-
Is this like Elementor for Gutenberg?
-
Yes! Magical Blocks brings Elementor-style design controls to the native WordPress editor. You get Flexbox containers, responsive controls, and visual design panels – all without leaving Gutenberg.
-
Does this plugin work with my theme?
-
Yes! Magical Blocks works with any properly coded WordPress theme. It uses CSS variables that integrate seamlessly with modern themes like Twenty Twenty-Four, Astra, Kadence, and GeneratePress.
-
Will this slow down my website?
-
No. Magical Blocks uses on-demand asset loading, which means CSS and JavaScript files only load on pages that actually use the blocks. Pages without Magical Blocks have zero additional assets.
-
How do I create multi-column layouts?
-
Use the Container Block as a parent, then add Inner Container Blocks inside for each column. Set the parent container’s Flex Direction to “Row” and adjust the width of each Inner Container. It works just like Elementor’s sections and columns!
-
Is it compatible with the Gutenberg plugin?
-
Yes! We test with both WordPress core editor and the latest Gutenberg plugin to ensure compatibility.
-
Can I use this with other block plugins?
-
Absolutely. Magical Blocks is designed to complement other block plugins and won’t conflict with them.
-
Do you offer support?
-
Yes! Free support is available through the WordPress.org support forums. Pro users get priority email support.
