Great plugin and very good support
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.

Amazing Time Saving Plugin!
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.
