About ZoloBlocks
ZoloBlocks keeps padding its WordPress block library with new blocks and styling controls.
ZoloBlocks is a WordPress Gutenberg block library with free and pro tiers, competing in the Elementor/block-addon space. Recent releases add blocks and styling controls — a full Google Fonts library in typography, a Modal block, Marquee axis controls, per-block color and alignment options — interleaved with routine bug-fix point releases. The feed's latest entry is mid-March 2026, so shipping has been quiet for several months.
