Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Blockloom provides seven essential content blocks for the WordPress block editor. Built entirely on native WordPress APIs with no external runtime dependencies, Blockloom is fast, lightweight, and designed to work with any theme.

Icons are powered by Font Awesome Free (1,400+ icons including brands and social icons), rendered as inline SVG — no icon fonts, no CDN, no API key required.

All blocks follow a minimal styling philosophy — structural CSS only, so your theme’s typography, colours, and spacing take precedence. Every colour can be overridden per block via the inspector controls, and all blocks support WordPress’s native Styles tab with theme colour palette integration.

Blocks

Icon

Display a single icon with optional link, accessibility label, background shape (none, rounded, circle), hover colour, and hover animation (Scale, Rotate, Fade). Choose from 1,400+ Font Awesome Free icons via a searchable picker.

Icon List

A vertical or horizontal list of icon + text items. Supports custom icon size, icon position (before/after text), gap control, divider, responsive flex wrapping, and line height. Each list item has its own icon picker.

php for clean, accessible HTML.

Info Box

An icon + title + description card with three layout modes (Icon Top, Icon Left, Icon Right), left/center/right content alignment, optional CTA link, title tag selector (H2–H5) for correct heading hierarchy, icon and card hover states, and linked/unlinked padding control.

FAQs

An accessible accordion-style FAQ section. Supports three icon styles (Chevron, Plus, Arrow), icon position (before/after the question), allow-multiple-open mode, default open state (all closed or first open), and optional FAQPage JSON-LD schema for SEO. Uses a smooth CSS grid animation for open/close — no max-height hacks.

Team Member

A profile card with photo, name, designation, bio, and social links. Supports seven social networks (LinkedIn, X/Twitter, GitHub, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Custom), Normal/Hover social icon colours, social icon gap control, image shape (Square, Rounded, Circle), and optional Person JSON-LD schema. Designation can link to a URL.

Rating

Display a star or bar rating with optional numeric value and AggregateRating JSON-LD schema. Stars support full and half-star values. Bar style supports scroll animation, height and border radius control.

Numeric value wraps naturally below the rating on narrow containers.

Progress Bar

A progress bar with title and percentage value, and the bar at full width below or above. Supports striped fill with optional moving stripe animation, scroll animation, height (4–40px), border radius, and a custom label that overrides the auto percentage.
