Gutenberg Block Manager by [Connekt](https://connekthq.com) will allow you to manage the activation status of Gutenberg blocks and remove unwanted blocks from the WordPress post editor. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
== Description == |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
The Gutenberg Block Manager is an intuitive tool for WordPress site admins to _globally_ manage the enabled/disabled state of each block. Disabled blocks will be removed from the block inserter on post edit screens. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
### Features |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
- **Globally Enable/Disable Blocks** - Unlike the block manager functionality in the Gutenberg editor, this tool will globally enables/disables blocks for all users on your site. |
| 20 |
- **Block Search and Filter** - Quickly locate blocks using the block search functionality in the sidebar. |
| 21 |
- **Filter Hooks** - Use the `gbm_disabled_blocks` filter to control blocks from `functions.php`. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
### Filters |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
#### gbm_disabled_blocks |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Use the `gbm_disabled_blocks` filter to control blocks via backend code. This makes it easier to control the status of blocks across multiple WordPress environments. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
``` |
| 30 |
add_filter('gbm_disabled_blocks', function(){ |
| 31 |
return ['core/buttons', 'core/columns', 'core/freeform', 'core/table']; |
| 32 |
}); |
| 33 |
``` |
