Description
Create and set Gutenberg blocks templates for your posts, pages and custom post types.
- Go to Blocks Templates->Create Template in your admin panel.
- Start creating your template, adding any blocks you’d like with the Gutenberg editor.
- Assign your newly created template to any post type (post, page or custom).
- The template will be set as the default content of new posts of that type.
CBT also includes some blocks π
- Private Block: A block that helps you protect your content and control its visibility. You can protect anything inside this “block container” with a password, allow only logged-in members to see the contents, filter by user role and display only in single or archive pages.
- Accordion: An accordion-like drop down with a header and InnerBlocks, so you can create multiple accordions inside.
- CSV Tables: Allows you to import a CSV file and show its contents in a table with search and order functionality.
- Card: A simple bordered box with a header and custom content (Inner Blocks).
- Social share: Choose your favorite social media platforms and allow visitors to share your content easily. Supports: Buffer, Diaspora, Douban, Evernote, Facebook, Flipboard, Hacker News, Hatena, Kakao Story, LINE, LinkedIn, MenΓ©ame, Mixi, Pinterest, Pocket, Qzone, Reddit, Renren, Telegram, Tumblr, Twitter, VK, Weibo, WhatsApp and Xing
And new controls for any blocks with rich text!
- Font Awesome Icons: Search Font Awesome 5 icons and include it in your posts as inline elements.
- Dynamic Text: Display the author name, post title, published date, categories and/or tags anywhere on your posts.

How are blocks templates useful?
