A display toolbox for Gutenberg

Same blocks.
Different shape.

Blockshifter transforms native WordPress blocks into new front-end display modes — without new blocks, without leaving the editor, and without changing how you build your content.

Native Gutenberg Gallery→ Blockshifter
The concept

Your content stays native.

Blockshifter adds a display mode to the blocks you already use. The editor stays familiar. The front end gets a different shape.

No new block types

Use native Gutenberg Gallery and Group blocks. Nothing proprietary gets between you and WordPress.

Front-end transformation

Blockshifter changes how your content is presented on the front end, while the underlying block remains native.

Simple by design

Select a block, choose a shape, configure it, and publish. No new workflow to learn.

Display modes

Give your blocks a new shape.

Blockshifter currently comes with two display modes. More are on the way.

Why Blockshifter

WordPress stays WordPress.

Blockshifter is built around the native block editor, not around replacing it.

Keep your content. Change the presentation.

Use the blocks you already know, keep editing them the way you always have, and add richer front-end layouts when you need them.
