Best Gutenberg WordPress Plugins
31 plugins · 18.0M combined installs · 4.5/5 avg rating
Gutenberg plugins extend the native WordPress block editor that replaced the classic TinyMCE editor in WordPress 5.0. They add new block types, improve the editing interface, restore functionality that the transition removed, or bridge compatibility gaps for themes and plugins built before the Gutenberg era. Content creators, developers, and site builders use Gutenberg plugins to access advanced layout controls, custom block patterns, reusable section libraries, and editorial workflow features that the core editor does not yet provide. As WordPress continues to mature its full-site editing roadmap, Gutenberg plugins remain essential tools for anyone pushing the block editor beyond its default capabilities.
