== Frequently Asked Questions == |
| 323 |
|
| 324 |
= How do I install this plugin? = |
| 325 |
|
| 326 |
You can install it as other regular WordPress plugins. No different way. Please see on installation tab. |
| 327 |
|
| 328 |
= Is bBlocks free? = |
| 329 |
|
| 330 |
Yes, bBlocks is a free Gutenberg block plugin. |
| 331 |
|
| 332 |
= Can I change block settings? = |
| 333 |
|
| 334 |
Yes, you can change block settings from the Gutenberg block editor's right sidebar. |
| 335 |
|
| 336 |
= How many times can I reuse a block? = |
| 337 |
|
| 338 |
You can use unlimited times as you want. |
| 339 |
|
| 340 |
= Where can I get support? = |
| 341 |
|
| 342 |
You can post your questions on the [support forum here](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/b-blocks/) |
| 343 |
|
| 344 |
= How do I set up the Google Map block? = |
| 345 |
|
| 346 |
1. In Google Cloud console, create an API key and enable the **Maps JavaScript API**. Also enable **Geocoding API** (address lookup), **Places API (New)** (the search box) and **Directions API** (routes) if you use those features. |
| 347 |
2. Create a **Map ID** under Google Maps Platform → Map Management. Markers use Advanced Markers, which require one. |
| 348 |
3. Restrict the key: add an **HTTP referrer** restriction for your domain (`https://example.com/*`) and an **API restriction** limiting it to the APIs above. The key is visible in the page source of any site using Google Maps, so restricting it is what keeps it from being abused. |
| 349 |
4. Paste the key into **bBlocks → Settings → Google Maps**, then paste the Map ID into the block's Map Source panel. |
| 350 |
|
| 351 |
Without a key the block still renders the address and an "Open in Google Maps" link, so the page is never broken. |
| 352 |
|
| 353 |
= Where do I report security bugs found in this plugin? = |
| 354 |
Please report security bugs found in the source code of the bBlocks plugin through the [Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program](https://patchstack.com/database/vdp/9e5fbc32-7c9b-43f0-8095-b109c089829f). The Patchstack team will assist you with verification, CVE assignment, and notify the developers of this plugin. |

== External Services == |
| 358 |
|
| 359 |
This plugin connects to the following third-party services under specific circumstances: |
| 360 |
|
| 361 |
**bPlugins Template Library** (`https://templates.bplugins.com`) |
| 362 |
Used to fetch pre-designed block patterns and page templates when an editor opens the Template Library panel inside the block editor. No data is sent — the plugin issues a read-only GET request. Requests are only made when a logged-in editor with `edit_posts` capability explicitly opens the Template Library, and all requests are nonce-protected. |
| 363 |
Privacy policy: https://bplugins.com/privacy-policy/ |
| 364 |
|
| 365 |
**OpenAI API** (`https://api.openai.com`) |
| 366 |
Used by the AI Content Generator feature to generate block content from a prompt. This feature only activates after a site administrator explicitly enters their own OpenAI API key in the bBlocks settings panel. The text prompt entered by the editor is sent to OpenAI's servers for processing. No data is sent automatically or without the administrator's deliberate opt-in. |
| 367 |
OpenAI Privacy Policy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy/ |
| 368 |
OpenAI Terms of Service: https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use/ |
| 369 |
|
| 370 |
**Google Maps Platform** (`https://maps.googleapis.com`) |
| 371 |
Used by the Google Map block to render interactive maps, geocode addresses, autocomplete place searches and calculate routes. This only activates after a site administrator explicitly enters their own Google Maps API key in the bBlocks settings panel. When a visitor views a page containing an interactive map, their browser loads Google's Maps JavaScript API and Google receives the request (including IP address) as it would for any embedded map. Blocks using the classic embed-URL mode, and blocks on sites with no key configured, make no request at all. |
