  • it is necessary for FES

    It can set margins for each screen width that cannot be set with the default block. It also supports negative margins. Easy to use.

  • Very nice

    I wish more people would release single, useful blocks like this instead of all those copy cat collections. Who really needs 5 accordion blocks? Only other thing I'd like to see in this is a way to set default initial heights like 75px desktop | 50px tablet | 25px phone etc. I was actually looking for a way to set a default height for the core spacer block when I stumbled on this.

  • Those responsive features core forgot!

    I use this plugin on every site I build! An easy drop-in replacement for the spacer block.

  • Fix My Problem with Mobile View

    I had a problem with the standard Spacer Block, wherein it breaks the format in mobile in our website. With Flexible Spacer, I can designate the size of the space per mobile device! Awesome, thank you for developing this plugin.
