Outline settings are based on user meta. Each user can change the settings according to their needs and it will applied only to their account. Users can change: * When to show outline. On hover or always displayed. * Lock outline for a single block. * Disable outline completely. * Show data (name and class) outside block, inside or floating when hovering over block * Change outline color. * Change outline style to solid, dashed or dotted line * Change padding size * Show/hide block name ### Filters * editor_outline_default_user_meta You can override the default user meta by using this filter. The filter will receive the default user meta as an array and you can return a modified array.

You seem to have thought of everything. Makes Gutenberg/ block editor actually usable. Should be part of wp core. Thanks for your great work 🙂 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a418789a550db50f9e5ceea6eab2d1519f362c6600e3f569062803cbec49dd8b? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[This should have been baked in from the start!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/this-should-have-been-baked-in-from-the-start/)󠁿 [](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mgjaltema/) 22 april 2024 I was never ready to make the jump to Gutenberg but I had to do it sooner or later. Coming from (leaving?) Elementor with it's nice interface, it's a brutal contrast and I have never understood why they made it so empty and counter-intuitive. Your plugin will make my transition much less painful so thanks for the great work! I have actually tried a few of these plugins but you really raised the bar and has some great extra features. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/b809cf561c7c773892ba5e5c88a31e99a04ef9a06718253b2a8c1cf5fb2c1bea? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Nice visual tool but…](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nice-visual-tool/)󠁿 [revixi5](https://profiles.wordpress.org/revixi5/) 6 februari 2024 Works great with latest version of WP 6.4.3. The only issue is that it disable a native function (from the browser of Wordpress) that when you select multiple blocks they become highlighted. When that plugin is enable, you don't see that anymore and it's difficult to see which blocks are selected. So it's a plugin that help to better see the limits of the blocks but makes you blind with other things… (I'm on Mac with Firefox). ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fb17156a354c2dcf549d51158715a92afb6d155ec0899bb77e551d0b9769a5ff? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Simple and just a very helpfull plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-and-just-a-very-helpfull-plugin/)󠁿 [Chrilles](https://profiles.wordpress.org/chrilles/) 28 januari 2024 I use this on all my WP installs, and it just makes editing blocks so much easier.
