• There are more tools that have templates or patterns or whatever you can call them. But the problem with them is that either they aren’t styled nicely and it is cumbersome to change them to your exact wished.

    Maxi Blocks has a nicely designed Template library and you can easily style the templates by using one of the predefined style cards. And you can edit the style card like changing colours and fonts and then you can activate them accross all the templates on your page.

    I’ve just started playing with it. It seems extremely powerfull too. A small wish would be that the style cards would work cross site instead of on per page basis. You can however easily select a style card you set on another page though.

    I did a small test and it didn’t really affect the pagespeed.

    Hi @handig ! Thanks for your review ?? Glad you are finding Maxi Blocks useful. Makes us very happy ??

    Regarding your comment:

    Style cards are applied to all Maxi “foundation blocks”. Those are the custom Gutenberg blocks we use to create the free & pro templates in the library.

    Style cards already work cross-site, you just need to “activate” it to make it global.

    When you browse and insert a style card, it affects page level Maxi foundation blocks only… until you “activate it” to make it go site wide.

    Hope that helps! And welcome to Maxi Blocks ??

    What kind of landing pages are you looking for?

    We’d be happy to create some and add them to the library. Let us know.

    Ah nice you are correct. The style card do work cross-site. Really nice function.

    I think your blocks are a great foundation to build landingpages. And with the style cards I can easily adopt it to a corporate identity.

    Probably a bit far fetched. But what would be really cool if the style cards could be used on forms plugins too. I’m using Formidable Forms which has styling but you can disable that. Maybe if you have a special formidable forms container block where you can insert the formible forms block so that it inherits the styling rules from the styling card?

    We are currently working on a feature which will allow style cards to be applied to core blocks as well. However, this is only experimental and may not work with other plugins’ blocks.

    Looking forward to it. I appreciate that you take a broader view which includes other blocks and try to make for us the whole design process easier.
