**How Gutenberg Premium can help web designers / web agencies**

The Gutenberg editor can be difficult to understand and handle for clients who don’t
have a technical background. However often clients still need a way to adapt their
pages, remove sections, do text changes etc. The «allow patterns only» feature provides
a powerful way to create predefined templates and organize them into custom categories.
This allows you to offer your clients an easy and intuitive way to add sections 
to their pages independently, without risking the overall layout. By using patterns,
you can ensure consistency and simplify the editing process for non-technical users.

## FAQ

### What does this plugin do?

This plugin allows you to manage Gutenberg block permissions for specific user roles.
You can define which blocks can be added and whether they can be fully edited or
not. If they are not fully editable users can only do text changes to blocks.

### Who is this plugin for?

This plugin is for anyone looking for a way to limit the adding and editing of specific
blocks. This is particularly useful for web agencies who want to give their clients
a way to edit their pages without breaking the layout of the page.

### How does this plugin work?

This plugin uses a combination of JavaScript and CSS to disable blocks, hide elements,
and restrict editing capabilities in the Gutenberg editor.

### Can users with technical knowledge still edit or add blocks?

It is important to note that this plugin does not provide a bullet-proof way to 
prevent users from changing and adding blocks. Users with technical knowledge who
modify the source code or CSS can bypass these restrictions and continue to edit
or add blocks. This plugin is designed as a tool to simplify the Gutenberg editor
for users, but it does not guarantee that users cannot edit or add blocks. Also 
Shortcuts like copy, add after, paste, etc. will continue to work.
