## Skildring

Extend Gutenberg Reusable Blocks feature with a complete admin panel, widgets, shortcodes
and PHP functions.

This plugin extends the Reusable Blocks admin interface and provides few fancy features:

 * Add Reusable Blocks dashboard informations
 * Activate Reusable Blocks admin screen
 * Provide a list of Posts where each Reusable Block is used and the date it was
   last modified
 * Provide a **live preview of your reusable blocks** from the Reusable Blocks admin
   screen, with your theme stylesheets
 * Provide a Reusable Blocks Widget to use your block anywhere you want in your 
   theme’s widgets areas
 * Provide a Reusable Blocks Shortcode to use your block anywhere you want in your
   Post types (even if they use the Classic Editor rather than Gutenberg!)
 * Provide some Reusable Blocks PHP functions to use your block anywhere you want
   in your theme even
 * NEW: An easy tool to convert reusable blocks to block patterns in one click!

For a full presentation of Reusable Blocks Extended, see this [WordCamp Talk synthesis available on my blog](https://jeanbaptisteaudras.com/en/2019/12/gutenberg-reusable-blocks-wordcamp-marseille-talk-synthesis/).

## Vanlege spm.

### How to implement Reusable Blocks using Widgets

 * Go to WP-Admin > Appearance > Widgets.
 * Add «Reusable Block» Widget to your widget area.
 * Choose the reusable block you want to use and save the widget.

### How to implement Reusable Blocks with shortcode

 * Go to WP-Admin > Reusable Blocks.
 * Choose the reusable block you want to use; copy the provided shortcode.
 * Then, paste it where you want.

Syntax: `[reblex id="NUMERIC_ID_OF_THE_REUSABLE_BLOCK"]`

### How to implement Reusable Blocks with PHP functions

 * Go to WP-Admin > Reusable Blocks.
 * Choose the reusable block you want to use; copy the provided PHP function.
 * Then, paste it where you want.

Syntax:
 reblex_display_block( NUMERIC_ID_OF_THE_REUSABLE_BLOCK );

Note for developers: you may also need to **get** the shortcode data **before** 
displaying it. In this case, you should use the following function:
 reblex_get_block(
NUMERIC_ID_OF_THE_REUSABLE_BLOCK );

Thanks for making writing so much easier with a great plugin to manage my blocks
and patterns. Forgot how good it was until I did a new site without it!

 [Orlandoo](https://profiles.wordpress.org/orlandoo/) 19. august 2025

This plugin adds practical functions to template management that should actually
be available directly in WordPress. The overview of where each template has been
used is worth its weight in gold.

### 󠀁[This does the job of a $200 plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/this-does-the-job-of-a-200-plugin/)󠁿

 [Line49 Design](https://profiles.wordpress.org/line49/) 14. juni 2024

Hey everybody that wrote to this forum and complained about something not working
with this free plugin: You can get the Gutenberg Block as a Shortcode function by
using WP Code Pro. It works great and is highly supported. But the price is USD$
100/yr for a single website, or $250/yr for 25 sites (prices upon yearly renewal).
The whole reason I found this plugin is that WP Code Pro is expensive, and there
is no LTD. After a fairly thorough search, I have found zero other options besides
these two plugins: one home-made and one commercial. So if you don’t want to pay
the premium price for the commercial plugin, then there’s no point complaining about
the homemade one.

 [mjmurphy53711](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mjmurphy53711/) 4. juni 2024

Previously a 5 star review, the last year problems creeping in and it’s obvious 
to me that the developer refuses to participate in this support forum. Kick them
out of the respository until they are responsive. Note to developer, previously 
would have happily purchased a pro version of this plugin (which you don’t seem 
to offer) in order to support you and get access to support.
