View on WordPress

Shed Editor Assist enhances the Gutenberg block editor experience with visual aids that make layout structure clearer.

Features:

  • Layout Borders — dashed outlines on Columns, Column, Group, and Spacer blocks so you can see structure at a glance
  • Block Color Coding — each block type gets a distinct border color (paragraph, heading, image, list, buttons)
  • Grab Markers — a ⠿ handle at the top-left corner of each block for quick drag-and-drop reordering
  • Backspace / Delete Protection — prevents accidental block deletion or column-merge when the cursor is at the start or end of a block (both keys protected)

All features are editor-only. Nothing is added to the frontend.

Each feature can be toggled independently under Settings > Shed Editor Assist. Border style (dashed / solid), width, and base color are also configurable.

Optional paid add-ons are available at https://wpshed.jp.
