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.

This WordPress plugin adds a load more option to the Query Loop Pagination block in Gutenberg, allowing users to load more posts without refreshing the page. It replaces the traditional <code>Previous</code> <code>Next</code> and numbered pagination, with a customizable, <code>Load More</code> button.
<h3>Instructions</h3>
To use this plugin, you must first add the Query Loop block into your post content, then add the Pagination block inside the Query Loop. When working with the Pagination block, you will see new options to enable load more on the block. 
The load more option allows you to set a loading text parameter and also the button text. The load more button works with the alignment options and arrow options of the pagination block. 
Here is how to enable the load more option:
<ol>
<li>Add the Query Loop block to your post content.</li>
<li>Inside the Query Loop block, add the Pagination block.</li>
<li>In the Pagination block settings, enable the “Load More” option.</li>
<li>Set the loading text parameter and the button text.</li>
<li>Customize the alignment and arrow options if desired.</li>
</ol>
That’s it! Your visitors can now load more posts by clicking the load more button without refreshing the page.
<h3>Customization Options</h3>
<ul>
<li>Alignment: Use standard block editor settings to set the alignment of the load more button</li>
<li>Button: Choose the button option for users to click to load more posts</li>
<li>Button Text: Customize the load more button text</li>
<li>Loading Text: Customize the text for the post loading state</li>
<li>Infinite Scroll: Choose this option to allow new posts to load automatically when users reach the bottom of the feed</li>
<li>Color: Customize the color of the load more button and the loading state icon when using the infinite scroll option</li>
<li>Update URL: Choose this option to update the browser’s URL when loading more posts</li>
</ul>
