Naked Cat Plugins

This plugin aims to ensure that any language change in a page’s content is indicated to assistive technologies at the container block level, helping a website comply with WCAG guidelines.
This feature is available on the core block editor only at a text formatting level after code from <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/lang-attribute/" rel="ugc">Jb Audras plugin “Lang Attribute for the Block Editor”</a> was merged into core. The objective of this plugin is to provide the same functionality at a container block level (Group – including all its variants, Columns, Cover, and other specific block types) so that the language applies to all child elements, no matter the kind of content inside.
The plugin also supports setting the language at the page or post level, both on the blocks and the classic editor. When an entire page is written in a different language than the website’s default, you can override the HTML <code>lang</code> and <code>dir</code> attributes for that specific page directly from the Document Settings sidebar, without needing to wrap everything in a container block. 
For even broader coverage, the plugin supports setting the language at the template level in the Site Editor (Appearance → Editor → Templates). A language set on a template is automatically applied to all pages and posts using that template, unless a specific language is set at the individual post or page level — in which case the post-level setting takes precedence. 
This plugin is heavily inspired by the Jb Audras plugin (including this readme file). The development started at WordCamp Europe 2025 Contributor Day, by Marco Almeida from <a href="https://profiles.wordpress.org/nakedcatplugins/" rel="nofollow ugc">Naked Cat Plugins</a> / <a href="https://profiles.wordpress.org/webdados/" rel="nofollow ugc">Webdados</a>, and the help from <a href="https://profiles.wordpress.org/welcher/" rel="nofollow ugc">Ryan Welcher</a> on the code side and <a href="https://profiles.wordpress.org/alh0319/" rel="nofollow ugc">Amber Hinds</a> on the accessibility compliance side.
For more context: this plugin helps you to make your website compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) success criteria:
<ul>
<li>3.1.1 – Language of Page: The default human language of each web page can be programmatically determined. Use the template-level setting when all posts or pages sharing a template are in the same language, or the page-level setting when an entire page or post is written in a language other than the website or template default.</li>
<li>3.1.2 – Language of Parts: The human language of each passage or phrase in the content can be programmatically determined. Use the block-level setting when only specific sections within a page are in a different language.</li>
</ul>
The purpose of these success criteria is to ensure that user agents can correctly present content written in multiple languages.
Keep in mind that you should set the <code>lang</code> and <code>dir</code> attributes only on a container block or page if the content is written in a language different from the one set globally on your website.
As per Web Content Accessibility Guidelines:
This enables user agents and assistive technologies to present content according to the presentation and pronunciation rules of that language. This applies to graphical browsers, screen readers, braille displays, and other voice browsers.
Both assistive technologies and conventional user agents can render text more accurately if the language of each passage of text is identified. Screen readers can use the language’s pronunciation rules. Visual browsers can display characters and scripts appropriately.
This is especially important when switching between languages that read from left to right and languages that read from right to left, or when text is rendered in a language that uses a different alphabet. Users with disabilities who know all the languages used in the Web page will be better able to understand the content when each passage is rendered appropriately.
That’s not just good for accessibility. It’s also great for SEO. Search engines like Google can better understand your content when languages are clearly defined. That means improved indexing and potentially better rankings.

Advanced Editor Tools (previously TinyMCE Advanced) introduces a “Classic Paragraph” block for the block editor (Gutenberg). 
If you are not quite ready to switch to the block editor, or have plugins that cannot be used there (yet), using the Classic Paragraph block is your best option. It lets you to continue to use the familiar TinyMCE editor for most tasks, and at the same time gives you full access to all blocks and new features in the block editor.
Version 5.5 continues to improve and enhance the new features introduced in version 5.0 of the plugin. It includes an improved “Clear Formatting” button, several advanced settings for tables, and importing and exporting of the settings to a file.
If you want to continue to use the previous (“classic”) editor in WordPress 5.0 and newer, this plugin has an option to replace the new editor with the previous one. If you prefer to have access to both editors side by side or to allow your users to switch editors, it would be better to install the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/" rel="ugc">Classic Editor plugin</a>. Advanced Editor Tools is fully compatible with the classic editor plugin and similar plugins that restore use of the previous WordPress editor.
As always this plugin will let you add, remove and arrange the buttons that are shown on the Visual Editor toolbar in the Classic Paragraph and Classic blocks in the block editor, and in the classic editor (when enabled by a plugin). There you can configure up to four rows of buttons including Font Sizes, Font Family, text and background colors, tables, etc.
It includes 15 plugins for <a href="https://www.tiny.cloud/" rel="nofollow ugc">TinyMCE</a> that are automatically enabled or disabled depending on the buttons you have chosen. 
In addition this plugin adds options for keeping the paragraph tags in text mode and importing the CSS classes from the theme’s editor-style.css.
<h4>Some of the features added by this plugin</h4>
<ul>
<li>“Classic Paragraph” block that can be used instead of or together with the standard Paragraph block.</li>
<li>An option to set the Classic Paragraph or Classic block as the default block in the block editor.</li>
<li>Supports converting of most default blocks to classic paragraphs, and from classic paragraphs back to the default blocks.</li>
<li>Support for creating and editing tables in the Classic blocks and the classic editor.</li>
<li>More options when inserting lists in the Classic blocks and the classic editor.</li>
<li>Search and Replace in the Classic blocks and the classic editor.</li>
<li>Ability to set Font Family and Font Sizes in the Classic blocks and the classic editor.</li>
<li>And many others.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Privacy</h4>
Advanced Editor Tools does not collect or store any user related data. It does not set cookies, and it does not connect to any third-party websites. It only uses functionality that is available in <a href="https://wordpress.org/" rel="ugc">WordPress</a>, and in the <a href="https://tinymce.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">TinyMCE editor</a>.
In that terms Advanced Editor Tools does not affect your website’s user privacy in any way.

This plugin is very helpful to me. Please update more feature can add custom shortcode.
Thank you very much. 

This plugin is very helpful to me.


Hey! So I only see one plugin here - Advanced Editor Tools (formerly TinyMCE Advanced). It's pretty solid if you're not ready to fully embrace Gutenberg yet. The "Classic Paragraph" block is clever - lets you use the old familiar editor within the new one. Great for folks transitioning or with older plugins that don't play nice with blocks. The table tools and formatting options are handy too. Worth a try if you miss the classic editor!


Quick Take: Advanced Editor Tools - Your Gutenberg Safety Net

Extends and enhances the block editor (Gutenberg) and the classic editor (TinyMCE).
