Timed Event Block adds a server-rendered parent block for scheduling event content by date/time, plus dedicated child blocks for dynamic date, time, and countdown output.
Ideal for event listings such as movie showtimes, class schedules, workshops, conferences, livestreams, and similar use cases. It requires no global configuration: install the plugin and start using the block directly in FSE workflows.
This plugin is designed for full site editing workflows where content creators need:
<ul>
<li>A single event container that can hold any core block (text, media, embeds, columns, groups, etc.).</li>
<li>Automatic status handling based on current server time:</li>
<li>Scheduled</li>
<li>Active</li>
<li>Ended</li>
<li>Optional automatic hiding of ended events (<code>Hide when ended</code>).</li>
<li>Child blocks that can be used only inside the Timed Event parent:</li>
<li>Event Date</li>
<li>Event Time</li>
<li>Event Countdown</li>
<li>Dynamic frontend updates for status/time/countdown without page refresh.</li>
<li>Native Gutenberg style controls (spacing, color, typography, border, dimensions) on parent and child blocks.</li>
</ul>
How it works:
<ol>
<li>Add a Timed Event block.</li>
<li>Set start date/time and duration.</li>
<li>Insert any content you want.</li>
<li>Optionally insert child blocks:</li>
</ol>
* Event Date for date display with site/custom format. 
* Event Time for scheduled time and active/ended label transitions. 
* Event Countdown for countdown to start/end and status transitions. 
5. Publish. Frontend output is resolved server-side, and dynamic text updates via lightweight view scripts.

Remember Post Formats? If you want to display a post format in a block based theme, you need a plugin and this one does that and only that.

Post Format Block

I'm not just the developer, I'm also a user of this plugin and I'm very happy with how it works

It's Great


Appreciate this plugin!I almost wish it had the option to enable post formats. A check box to turn them on for Posts and/or Pages would be nice. A lot of themes don't come with Formats and even for my own theme I threw together a quick one file plugin to enable them.


Does what it says on the box!

Adds a Post Format Block as a variation of the core/post-terms block.
