  • Incompatibility issue

    The unnecessary and non-urgent modification in 2.0.3 causes an incompatible problem.

  • This should be a Core Block!

    This should be part of WordPress core blocks. Thanks for fixing Gutenberg!

  • Just what I needed

    Easy to use. Thank you developer. Don't forget to remove links from inside the group.

  • Well made and useful - perfect

    Nicely put together. Will be using this block regularly. The 4 star review mentions missing abitility to add title tag, but the excellent Attributes for Blocks plugin will do that for you and more, for all your blocks.

  • Yay, worked great!

    Thank you. I try to keep my sites lean and mean and appreciate that it's not bloated and elegantly integrated. Nice job.

  • Works Perfectly Well

    Thanks for this, works great for me, no need to hand code blocks to wrap href's around divs etc...
