Easily create dynamic content in WordPress that will increase conversions, enhance the user experience, and improve your workflow.

With this no-code solution, control which blocks are visible on your website and who can see them. Schedule content to show or hide at a specific time. Display exclusive promotions to your customers or members. Restrict blocks to specific user roles, screen sizes, query strings, WooCommerce products, EDD downloads, ACF fields, WP Fusion tags, and more.

Block Visibility is built exclusively for the WordPress Editor (Gutenberg) and is designed to work with any WordPress block. This includes blocks natively provided by WordPress, third-party blocks, and even block-based widgets.

Create Conditional Blocks in Seconds!

Work directly in the WordPress Editor with blocks you’re already familiar with. There is no external editor or new interface to learn. In seconds, you can transform static blocks into conditional and personalized content.

It takes just 3 simple steps:

Create your content using any WordPress block.
Select the desired visibility conditions.
Save the page/post and marvel at the results!

Packed With Features

Visibility Controls determine whether a block should be visible to users on the front end of your website. Features include:

Hide blocks from all users.
Schedule when content should be visible using a start and end date/time.
Conditionally display blocks based on screen size (Desktop, Tablet, Mobile, and more)
Only show blocks to logged-in users.

\nWho should use Block Visibility?\n\n

Block Visibility is a powerful yet simple plugin that gives marketing agencies, bloggers, eCommerce websites, and small business owners the power to conditionally show or hide blocks on their websites. The need to hide Gutenberg blocks varies. Whether you need to restrict content to specific users like members or launch a promotional campaign at a particular time with block scheduling, the applications are endless.

If you need dynamic content control on your WordPress website, you need Block Visibility.

\nDo conditional visibility controls really work with any block? (What is Full Control Mode?)\n\n

Yes! However, not all block types are enabled by default. Controls are only provided to blocks that can be added directly to a page/post by the block inserter. Therefore, some specialized blocks, such as child blocks, are not included by default. An example is the individual Column block that is part of the larger Columns block.

That said, you can enable Full Control Mode in the plugin settings. This setting removes all restrictions and adds conditional visibility controls to every block. You probably will not need Full Control Mode in most cases, but it is there if you do!

Furthermore, while this plugin is designed to be compatible with all blocks, the WordPress ecosystem is ever-expanding. If you find a conflict with a specific block, please let us know in the plugin support forum, and we will investigate. We are committed to bringing visibility block controls to every Gutenberg block.

\nCan Block Visibility be used with any WordPress theme?\n\n

Yup, this plugin is not theme-specific. You just need to run the latest WordPress version and use a theme that supports the block Editor. This plugin provides zero functionality to the Classic Editor.

\nWill more conditional visibility controls be added in the future?\n\n

Yes, and if you have a specific idea of what you would like to see, please submit a feature request in the plugin support forum on WordPress.org.

\nDoes this plugin work in the Site Editor (Full Site Editing)?\n\n

As of version 1.4.0, Block Visibility is supported in the Site Editor, which is available when using a block theme. We are committed to ensuring 100% compatibility with all Full Site Editing features. Please let us know in the plugin support forum if you find bugs or compatibility issues.

\nDoes Block Visibility work with Elementor and other page builders?\n\n

No. Block Visibility is designed specifically for the WordPress block Editor and, therefore, does not work on pages that the Elementor editor or another page builder controls. So long as you edit native WordPress “block” content, Block Visibility will work.

\nIs block visibility controlled using CSS?\n\n

Visibility is controlled primarily on the server, so if a block should be hidden based on the set block controls, it will not even be rendered. This functionality ensures the plugin does not load any additional resources on the front end of your site, thereby optimizing performance.

The one exception to this is the Screen Size block controls. Visibility by screen size requires the use of CSS. This CSS is loaded to the front end of your site if, and only if, these controls are enabled. You can opt to disable this CSS and add the necessary styles yourself. Visit the plugin Knowledge Base to learn more.
