SmartBlocks is a light weight WordPress Plugin that adds advanced and powerful Gutenberg Blocks and opens infinite possibilities to the WordPress Gutenberg editor for anyone to create the website of their own imagination in no time without touching a single line of code. SmartBlocks has 20+ unique and beautifully designed Gutenberg blocks that extend the library of existing WordPress blocks. The plugin works with any WordPress theme and is compatible with any other WordPress plugins.
Smart Blocks is a very useful plugin, but I’ve encountered an issue in versions 2.5 and 2.6. After updating, the WordPress media uploader no longer opens when selecting an image inside the editor. The button becomes unresponsive and the media modal does not load. Rolling back to version 2.4 immediately restores normal behavior.
I confirmed the issue by deactivating other plugins and testing different editors (Elementor and the default editor). The conflict only appears when Smart Blocks is updated beyond 2.4.
My environment: Viral Mag theme, Elementor, LiteSpeed server, PHP 8.0.30.
I wanted to share this in case it helps with debugging. The plugin is valuable and I hope future updates can address this compatibility issue. Thank you for your work.

Updated Review (v2.7):
I updated to version 2.7, and the media uploader issue has been fully resolved. Everything is working normally again.
Thank you to the development team for the quick fix and attentive support.
