Option to definte/set what plugins are used for block templates

Hey there @dskallman! Thanks for the kind words.

At the lower left is a plugin dependencies filter. If something has an orange hew to it, it’s is not installed. If you uncheck everything that is orange you’ll see only the plugins you have.

Do let me know if this helps and feel free to give any feedback if you have any other ideas. We appreciate you taking the time to contact us.

Wow, that’s a quick response!

I was hoping/wondering if that filter could only show what plugins are already installed. So the ones that are not don’t appear on that filter. So the content creators only see templates they can use without asking for a new plugin to be installed. Does that make sense?

It does make sense. I just need help on where to place it.

If you pull the latest version, you will see All/None/Reset. I wonder if adding an icon there from https://fontawesome.com/ would serve that need.

Unless you can think of another approach.

Icons are always useful, so am all for that.

I pulled in latest and there are less that appear. But they aren’t completely accurate. Initially I only had EditorsKit installed, then added ACF Blocks. Now I also added Atomic and UAG plugins, but they don’t appear at all on list. And others that I don’t have installed to test are listed. See this screenshot.

@dskallman we only list dependencies for templates we currently have that are using those blocks. We have yet to integrate UAG or Atomic or even CoBlocks. We’re working on it though!

Gotcha! So by default with no block plugins it would be native only? Then based on plugins installed, even if not active?

Thanks for getting back to me!

@dskallman We’ve added a feature for your request and it will be coming this week. The ability to click on “Installed” and only see the plugins that are installed. ??

I’ll keep you posted when this lands.
