Your daily reminder that WordPress development can and should be fun. Does @theiconblock need full rotational support? Maybe not, but this makes me happy. 🍕

An exciting day... @BlockVisibility and @theiconblock have each hit 20,000 users within the past week and have more than a combined 300,000 downloads. 🤯 Thank you to everyone who has used either plugin, logged issues, provided feedback, etc. I would not be where I am today without the success of my "little" side projects. 🙏 And last but not least, the Social Sharing Block hit 4,000 users last week!

@theiconblock I’d like to know more about the default color panel. I’ve been rolling my own color control for a few releases now.

Just released v1.6.0, and we're all ready for WordPress 6.3. 💪 A couple highlights: ✅ Plugin now requires WordPress 6.2 ✅ Added 21 new icons that were included in 6.2 ✅ Color controls now use the native color panel The min version was bumped for new block features in 6.2.

With over 10,000 users, I'm trying something new for v1.5.0 of @theiconblock. Each major release will now have a "Release Candidate". Use the link below to download and test RC1. I'm really excited about this one! Drop zones + Media Library uploads = 😍 github.com/ndiego/icon-bl…

.@theiconblock just hit 9,000 users. Not too bad for a single-block plugin I build for myself back in 2021. Perhaps it's because blocks are becoming more widely adopted, but I'm seeing really strong growth in the past 6 months. Currently at +1,000 users every ~25 days! 🤯

Knocked out a few feature requests today 💪 @theiconblock will soon have a new width control that supports more units or those specified in theme.json. Icon height control was also added along with a new settings panel design. Version 1.4.0 will release next week! ⚡️

@robknight Are you looking to "import" icons from another icon library, such as Font Awesome, Heroicons, etc.? If so, this is not currently supported but is a common feature request. For now, you need to specify each icon individually as detailed in this article. nickdiego.com/adding-custom-…

@theiconblock I see how you import and use the WordPress icons in github.com/ndiego/icon-bl… Can I do something like this with a *different* icon set? If it requires a separate build step, that's OK. Just wondering if there's a way to avoid hand-coding an entire set.

One year ago, I released the @theiconblock after struggling to find an efficient way to add SVG icons to the Editor. Today, it's one of my favorite side projects with over 4,000 users. Version 1.3.0 came out last week and allows you to do even more. 👇 nickdiego.com/icon-block-tur…

I am not sure when it happened, been a hectic few weeks 😅 — but @theiconblock is now being used on 3,000 websites. 🙌 Looking for a #WordPress product to build or a fun side project, custom niche blocks are a great place to start.

Version 1.2.0 was just released and includes many requested features. The most important is that you can now register your own custom icon library. ⚡️ Learn how 👉 nickdiego.com/adding-custom-…

Version 1.0.0 is here with a whole new icon insertion experience! Custom icons now get their own modal with a nice big text area and preview area. And of course, v1.0.0 includes the full #WordPress icon library!⚡️ v1.1.0 will improve icon categorization in the library.
