    A few weeks ago, I migrated from the Twenty Twenty theme to Twenty Twenty Four (TT4), which is full FSE. The migration created a few patterns from reusable blocks I was no longer using, and during the learning process, I created some patterns that I don’t want to keep. WP does not seem to have a tool that shows me where all my custom blocks/patterns are being used, so friends suggested I use this Find My Blocks plugin on a non-production version of my WP site.

    I had seen that this plugin was not being updated, but the comments indicated it was still working. Well, it doesn’t work for my site on WP 6.4.2 and TT4.

    • First of all, the plugin couldn’t find any of the reusable blocks/patterns I had created nor show me where they were being used.
    • Secondly, once I clicked on the Setting to “Show core blocks”, it would only show the Core/Quote block below.
    • Third, I deleted the plugin, rebooted firefox, rebooted my mac, and nothing changed. This tells me that the plugin wrote stuff into the SQL database and left it there. That’s my definition of db corruption.

    On the upside, the plugin did give me a list of my patterns, and I was able to categorize them. But I did have to reboot WP twice while setting these categories.

    So my warning is, don’t use this plugin. I realize the developer was well-meaning and is now too busy to work on this plugin, so I don’t fault the developer. But I do think WP ought to have a built-in find my blocks functionality. Otherwise, the block editor is going to become a mass of tangled fishline.

    Thank you so much for adding screenshots and details. They help a lot!

    I will diving deeper into the mentioned issues and work on a solution which doesn’t store data. My initial thoughts it’s definitely doable.

    For everyone reading this ticket:
    I’m the new developer for Find My Blocks! I’ll be preparing for an update very soon. All feedback will be taken into consideration ??
