Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Advanced Block Controls (ABC) — Core Blocks Page Builder and Full Site Editing Toolkit

Unlike other Gutenberg page builders, ABC doesn’t add unnecessary blocks or overwhelm you with features you might never use. Instead, it enhances the existing core blocks with advanced customization options, making them as powerful as third-party blocks. ABC focuses on simplicity, performance, and compatibility, ensuring a seamless experience without sacrificing speed or functionality.
