Incomplete and complicated
The samples are very nice, but they are far from reality.
The developers have wanted to cover many blocks, but forgetting about the basic settings.
- It is very surprising that none of the Blog post or Grid blocks allows to show the excerpt of the entries (in some only the title, in others the content limited by words, but not the excerpt).
- The settings panel of each block is integrated into the right menu of the WordPress editor, where the options to adjust are mixed in the view with each other (not even the sections are highlighted with a thicker font or another color).
- Blocks don't have automatic resizing when you resize the screen. You have to create several layouts (working type).
- The appearance that you configure in the WordPress editor, has nothing to do with what you see later when you publish the page.
For this builder to have any real utility, and be easily managed, the build should be done from the WordPress customizer, not from the page editor.
On the other hand, I also tried to use the support and it was really bad. They simply refer you to read the plugin documentation without helping at all or solving any doubts.

Sep 18, 2024Hi,
- Crop Content By Words works properly. However, We already planed to add dynamic support for post excerpts in both the blog post and grid blocks in the future. In the meantime, you can use our Query Builder block (https://wpmet.com/plugin/gutenkit/blocks/query-builder/) to create custom queries and display posts with excerpt limits, as demonstrated here: https://d.pr/i/AvJht4.
- We strive to maintain a simple and consistent UI across all blocks to ensure users remain focused and avoid confusion. For easy navigation, we’ve provided tabs for Settings, Style, and Advanced, with each tab containing multiple sections for different customization options, as seen here: https://d.pr/i/GbHHtr.
- Theme is responsive for HTML tag styling. However, if you want to change or override the style you can use scalable units like em, rem, %, vh, vw, etc.
- We can confirm that there is no discrepancy between the visual representation in the editor and on the frontend. However, if you are encountering any issues, please let us know, and we will be happy to assist you.
- In response to user demand and trends among several page builder plugins, we've introduced global utilities like Responsive Breakpoints within the page editor. We also plan to add further global customization utilities in future updates.
Please rest assured that our professional and friendly support team is available 24/7 to respond promptly to any inquiries.
