Thanks so much – makes hiding on devices sooooo simple 🙂
You are very welcome! Really glad that you love the plugin features 😉
Thanks for this post. But this plugin makes problems with others. For example: Stackable – Gutenberg Blocks. If the Block Options PLugin is activated, it doesn’t shows anymore Stackable – Gutenberg Blocks
My apology for late response. This issue is fixed now, please download the new EditorsKit 🙂 Thanks!
Hi, great plugin!! It’s exactly what I needed. Does it not work for shortcode blocks?
Thanks a lot Becca! And yes you can use it together with Shortcode Block just add the Group Block first then insert the shortcode block inside. Then add the EditorsKit devices visibility on the Group Block. Let me know how it goes.
