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. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records Description List Block version 1.3.1 as active, updated 11d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.

Overview

About this plugin

Build glossaries, FAQs, product specs and other term–description lists in the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg). The Description List Block outputs a semantic HTML definition list: a <dl> element with term ( <dt> ) and description ( <dd> ) pairs, the markup made for exactly this kind of content and understood by browsers, screen readers and search engines.

Add, insert and delete term and description pairs right in the editor, choose an indent or grid layout and style terms and descriptions separately. Already have a list, a few paragraphs or <dl> HTML? Transform it into a description list with one click, or simply paste the markup.
