About this plugin
Media Library Assistant Blocks provides Gutenberg blocks for all shortcodes provided by the popular Media Library Assistant plugin. The blocks offer an easy way to compose MLA shortcodes by customizing the look and feel of shortcode output with controls in the Block Editor’s Inspector Panel. Custom MLA Blocks MLA Gallery : The [mla_gallery] shortcode displays a gallery of images and/or other Media Library items (such as PDF documents). MLA Gallery is a superset of the [gallery] shortcode in the WordPress core; it is compatible with [gallery] and provides many enhancements. MLA Tag Cloud : The [mla_tag_cloud] shortcode displays a list of taxonomy terms in what is called a ‘tag cloud’, where the size of each term is determined by how many times that particular term has been assigned to Media Library items (attachments). The cloud works with both flat (e.g., Att. Tags) and hierarchical taxonomies (e.g., Att. Categories) MLA Tag Cloud provides many enhancements to the basic “cloud” display. MLA Term List : The [mla_term_list] shortcode displays hierarchical taxonomy terms in a variety of formats; link lists, dropdown controls and checkbox lists. The list works with both flat (e.g., Att. Tags) and hierarchical taxonomies (e.g., Att. Categories). MLA Custom Field List : The [mla_custom_list] shortcode displays a list of WordPress custom field values in a variety of formats, including a “cloud”, where the size of each list item is determined by how many times that particular value has been added to Media Library items (attachments). MLA Custom Field List provides many enhancements to the basic flat/cloud display. MLA Archive List : The [mla_archive_list] shortcode displays date-oriented values in a variety of formats, including a “cloud”, where the size of each list item is determined by how many Media Library items (attachments) have the corresponding date value. The archive list works with year, month, week and day values.
