FrontBlocks para Gutenberg y GeneratePress

Descripción

Container Edge Alignment for GenerateBlocks
Add custom controls to GenerateBlocks Container blocks to remove padding from the left or right side, creating edge-to-edge layouts. This feature only appears for containers using GeneratePress global max-width settings, perfect for creating asymmetric layouts where content extends to one browser edge while maintaining proper spacing on the other side.

Carrusel/control deslizante para la cuadrícula de GenerateBlocks
Hemos añadido opciones a los bloques de Gutenberg que te permiten crear un carrusel o control deslizante con los bloques que quieras.

Para empezar a usar el carrusel, ve al bloque de cuadrícula y selecciona la opción «Carrusel» o «Control deslizante» en la sección «Opción de cuadrícula de FrontBlocks».
