What it does
News sites and magazines need front pages and section pages that pull in recent articles, featured stories and category roundups. Building those layouts by hand in the block editor takes time, and the default blocks offer limited styling. This plugin gives you post modules as Gutenberg blocks, so you can drop a module onto a page, pick a display style and choose which posts it shows. It works inside the editor you already use, with a live preview that updates as you adjust settings.
Each module can be filtered by categories, tags or custom queries, which lets you create sections such as latest news, a single topic feed or a curated set of stories. Typography and color settings let you match the modules to your brand, and a Google Fonts list is available for type choices. Modules are responsive and retina ready, and Ajax loading lets readers move through posts without full page reloads. It suits bloggers, journalists and publishers running content-heavy sites.
Best for
- News portals and online newspapers
- Online magazines with many categories
- Bloggers who use the Gutenberg block editor
