AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Block Data Attribute is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 4 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +High average rating (5.0★) signals consistent merchant satisfaction
- +Published by Mahdi — established developer track record

How Block Data Attribute works
Block Data Attribute lets you attach custom data-* attributes to core WordPress blocks straight from the block settings sidebar. No theme edits, no custom code, no block validation errors.
data-* attributes are a standard HTML mechanism for storing extra information on elements. They are widely used for JavaScript interactions, CSS targeting, analytics tagging, accessibility enhancements, and third-party integrations. This plugin brings that capability into the block editor in a clean, structured way.
