Installation Instructions

Automatic installation is the easiest way to install WPBlocks as WordPress handles the file transfers itself. To do an automatic install of

In the search field type “WPBlocks” and click Search Plugins. Once you’ve found our plugin simply click “Install Now”. After the installation has finished, click the “Activate Plugin“ button.
WPBlocks requires Gutenberg, so make sure you have installed and activated the Gutenberg plugin.
Manual Installation
- Upload the
wpblocks folder to your /wp-content/plugins directory or alternatively upload the wpblocks.zip file via the \’Add New\’ button in WordPress plugins page.
- WPBlocks requires Gutenberg plugin. Install and activate Gutenberg WordPress plugin.
- Activate WPBlocks through the \’Plugins\’ menu in WordPress.
What is Gutenberg?
Gutenberg is a new WordPress editor that is going to be merged with WordPress 5.0.
It\’s important to keep in mind that Gutenberg is still in beta version and not yet fully functional, feature complete, or production ready. Once ready, it\’ll come with every WordPress installation (not as a plugin, but built-in as the default editor).
I installed this plugin but don\’t see any additional blocks.
Each block can be enabled/disabled from the “WPBlocks” panel under “Settings” menu item in WordPress Dashboard. Check if the blocks you want to use are enabled.
What are the additional blocks added by this plugin?
Currently, there are three additional blocks available: Info Box, Social Icons, and Blank Space. More blocks will be added with updates.
Is WPBlocks translation ready?
Yes. WPBlocks comes with full translation and localization support via the wpblocks textdomain. All .mo and .po translation files should go into the languages folder in the root folder of the plugin.
