Disable Drop Cap

A plugin to disable drop cap option in the Gutenberg block editor editor paragraph block.

You can find the plugin source code at GitHub.

Note for WordPress 5.8

With WordPress 5.8, you can use the new theme.json feature to disable drop caps in your theme. Add a theme.json file with the following content in the root of your theme.

{
    "version": 1,
    "settings": {
        "typography": {
            "dropCap": false
        }
    }
}

This plugin does continue working in WordPress 5.8 but be aware of this alternative solution.
