Design meets code in WordPress.
Unblock gives you full control over any page: style it visually or write real HTML, CSS and JS, bind dynamic data, or just ask the AI. All native to the editor.
No page builder, no lock-in, nothing proprietary. Just the open web.
Watch it come together 👇

Unblock rc.3 is out.
Not a feature release: this is the one that fixes and stabilizes everything before 1.0. Private data is now closed by default, pages and the editor got a lot faster, and expressions behave exactly like Twig and Timber.
That last part changes a few results, so read the changelog before you update.
Full changelog 👇

Unblock rc.2 is out: Unblock AI.
The assistant is no longer in beta. Its edits now land on the right block, it reuses your existing classes instead of guessing their values, and MCP sessions stay alive when the editor tab sits in the background.
Loops now read like Twig: {% for key, value in … %}.
This release also closes several security issues, so updating is recommended.

Unblock rc.1 is out: the Library.
Most pages reuse the same sections. Now you pick one from a set of ready-made patterns, preview it at any width and drop it onto your page.
You can also save your own sections, and share your libraries with other Unblock sites.
It's also the first release candidate: 1.0 stable is next, and more features are already underway for after.

Unblock beta.9 is out: Settings.
A new tab in the manager to configure the editor and what it ships to the front. Toggle the AI assistant and MCP, choose how the generated CSS is delivered, purge it, trim what the manager shows.
Your editor panel layout now follows you across devices too.
Full changelog 👇 docs.unblockwp.com/changelog…
Unblock beta.8 is out.
A quiet one: WooCommerce fields now show up in the Data Picker when you edit a product, a template, or a loop over products. The rest is refinement — search, query builder, CSS import, editor.

Unblock beta.7 is out: the Query Builder.
Showing the right posts used to mean remembering a pile of settings by heart.
Now you just pick: what to show, how to sort it, which filters to add, and Unblock builds it. Works for posts, terms and users. Everything it builds is real WordPress, editable by hand or with AI. Nothing locked away.

Tonight I'm starting from a blank WordPress page to test whether UnblockWP can make Gutenberg agency-ready.
We'll build live, use MCP, make a client-style revision, and inspect what's left behind, good, bad, or haunted.
We let AI do most of the work!

Unblock beta.6 is out: the Condition Builder.
The Data Picker let you insert data without syntax. This does the same for logic. Pick your data, an operator, a value, stack a few with AND/OR, and Unblock builds the condition for you.
Every rule stays real code you can edit by hand or with AI. Nothing locked away.

Unblock beta.5 is out: the Data Picker.
Insert dynamic data by searching and clicking. No syntax to learn. Type "title", hit enter, and Unblock writes the expression for you.
The best part: everything it builds is a plain expression. So no-code, code, or AI all produce the same thing underneath, and any of them can edit what the others made. No lock-in, just the open web.

Unblock beta.4 is out 🚀
A solid round of fixes and refinements across the editor and CSS engine. Nested rules, @ layer, loops and a bunch of styling edge cases all tightened up.

Gutenberg Core Blocks are annoying.
Easy to use for non techies, but terrible for html and css oriented devs.
This One Block to rule them all, changes it all.

Most builders end up inventing their own dialect. A custom schema here, a binding syntax there.
Unblock went the other way. HTML, CSS, JS, Twig. Nothing else underneath.
A bit on how that happened:

Finally. Unblock is out.
In French, *un bloc* means "one block."
In English, *unblock* means freeing the editor from its limits.
That's the whole pitch: every block in Gutenberg = one real HTML element. No nested wrappers, no abstraction layer. What you build is what ships.
The AI part follows naturally: no custom schema to learn, every LLM already speaks the open web. The chat is Unblock. The model is yours, configured in WP 7.0.
Lifetime Deal opens next week with WP 7.0. Demo is live now.
Meet Unblock.
