What is 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.

What is Carrd?

Carrd Analytics adds a 90-day view; the changelog stays small and steady.

Carrd's visible record is short, terse entries. Deleted sites land in a Trash folder for three days, or fourteen on Pro, signup forms post directly to Resend, and Prefill Reply-To now fills the sender's name. November added a Leaves background pattern and a Last 90 days period in Carrd Analytics.

ZoloBlocks vs Carrd: editorial side-by-side

Z0.0

ZoloBlocks keeps padding its WordPress block library with new blocks and styling controls.

◆ Current state

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.

◆ Where it's heading

Development is steady, incremental block-catalog expansion: more blocks (Modal, Marquee, Tag Cloud) and finer styling controls (typography, badge colors, hover states), split across free and pro channels. Nothing here redirects the product — it competes on breadth and polish of the block library. The multi-month gap since the last release is worth watching.

◆ Prediction

Expect continued additions of individual blocks and styling controls across both tiers, with net-new blocks tending to land in the pro channel first. No directional shift is visible in these entries.

5.0

Carrd Analytics adds a 90-day view; the changelog stays small and steady.

◆ Current state

Carrd's visible record is short, terse entries. Deleted sites land in a Trash folder for three days, or fourteen on Pro, signup forms post directly to Resend, and Prefill Reply-To now fills the sender's name. November added a Leaves background pattern and a Last 90 days period in Carrd Analytics.

◆ Where it's heading

The cadence is small polish on a mature builder: forms, dashboard conveniences and design assets. Nothing in the entries points to a structural change.

◆ Prediction

More small additions to forms and design patterns are the likely next entries; the changelog is too sparse to predict anything larger.
