A tip for every one, if you wanna save patterns for gutenberg of any kind blocks plugins like kadence buttons , make sure u gonna set your website with php 8.2 . after i use php 8.2 everything i can save. with older php version at my side kadence buttons did not save. just use php 8.2 .. Everything works like magic !
The BlockMiester plugin works perfectly. In addition, the Block Patterns dashboard makes Pattern editing easy.
Loving the plugin, it’s exactly what we needed to help less inexperienced developers build pages.
We had a technical problem after installation, an the BlockMeister support solved the issue very fast. Superb communication.
The plugin itself now works very nicely and is a great tool for our blog.
Thanks so much for this plugin. It was the difference between using re-useable blocks or just copy paste for my projects. Now I can build layouts and apply where needed. Such a time saver.
