原文外掛簡介
The block editor hides most of its controls behind hover states and precise mouse
positioning. Where a block begins and ends, that a block can be selected at all,
and where a new block would go are invisible until the cursor happens to land in
the right place. Experienced users have learned to live with this. Clients,
editors, and anyone who updates a page once a month have not.
VisiBlocks makes those controls visible. Every enhancement is a separate setting,
and they all start switched on, so you can see what the plugin does right away
and then switch off anything your editors do not need.
It is not a page builder. The block editor stays exactly as it is, and VisiBlocks
only removes friction around it. Blocks do not need to be rewritten or to opt in,
so it works with core blocks, ACF blocks, and third-party blocks alike. Disable
the plugin and the editor behaves as it always did.
Block outlines
Draw a boundary around blocks so their edges are visible. Choose “Always” to
outline every block, or “On hover” to show the boundary only for the block under
the cursor. Selected blocks and their parent containers are distinguished, so
it is clear which block you are in and what it sits inside.
Colors follow your WordPress admin color scheme.
Add-block hints
Place a faint “+” at each block boundary, and between columns, so it is obvious
where a new block would go. As you approach one, WordPress’s own inserter takes
over, so clicking behaves exactly as it normally does.
Add-block buttons at the edges
Add a working “+” above the first block and beneath the final one, the two spots
where WordPress offers no inserter of its own. There is always an obvious place
to start writing and to continue, rather than a thin strip of page to hunt for.
Delete button in the block toolbar
Deleting a block is a common, deliberate action, but WordPress keeps it inside
the toolbar’s overflow (“three dots”) menu. This adds a Delete button to the
toolbar itself, in its own group just before that menu. It is withheld for
blocks WordPress will not let you remove, and deletion undoes normally with
Ctrl+Z.
Remove-block button
Put a matching “minus” button beside the “+” that appears on a new empty block,
so a block added by accident can be removed on the spot instead of through the
toolbar’s overflow menu. Removal undoes normally with Ctrl+Z.
View in same tab
Add a “View” button that opens the post in the current tab, next to the stock
button that opens a new one, so a long editing session stops piling up browser
tabs.
Reposition the save notice
Move the “saved” confirmation from the far bottom-left corner up to the
top-right, near the Save button you just clicked.
Adjustable editor sidebar
Give the editor settings sidebar a roomier starting width and add a draggable
edge so each editor can choose how much room it needs. The resize control also
works with the keyboard, and WordPress remembers each editor’s chosen width. It
can grow to 75% of the viewport, making it useful for quick responsive checks
inside the editor.
