How Block Style Modifiers works
Show full descriptionShow less
Block Style Modifiers is a simple WordPress plugin that allows you to add multiple block styles to Gutenberg blocks.
Style Modifiers are additive CSS classes that:
Can be applied in addition to a Block Style
Can be selected multiple at the same time
Support both checkbox (non-exclusive) and radio (exclusive) behavior per category
Are predefined and documented by themes or plugins
Preserve class order, allowing advanced CSS control
Category Behavior
Style modifiers are organized into categories with two behaviors:
Non-exclusive categories (checkbox): Multiple modifiers can be selected simultaneously (default: exclusive: false)
Exclusive categories (radio): Only one modifier from the category can be selected at a time (exclusive: true)
Registering Categories
Categories are registered independently using block_style_modifiers_register_category() before any modifiers that belong to them. Modifiers then reference the category by its slug (string).
Applied to: Image, Cover, Media & Text (content blocks only)
Text Effects (Exclusive) – Micro-interactions for text
* Underline Reveal on Hover
* Soft Text Fade on Hover
Applied to: Paragraph, Heading (text blocks only)
All default modifiers respect accessibility preferences and are disabled when prefers-reduced-motion is set.
Architecture Note: Animations are only available for wrapper blocks (Group, Row, Stack, etc.) while Hover Effects are for content blocks (Image, Cover, Media & Text). This separation prevents CSS property conflicts and ensures all modifiers work seamlessly together.
You can easily extend or override these defaults by registering your own style modifiers in your theme or custom plugin.
Usage
Define your style modifiers using the block_style_modifiers_register_style function via your theme’s functions.php file or a custom plugin.
Select style modifiers in the block editor sidebar under “Block Style Modifiers”.
Style modifiers will be applied as additional CSS classes to the block’s wrapper element.
It is possible that reordering of classes may affect CSS specificity and styling.
Note: There is available an experimental plugin includes blocks style modifiers: Block Style Modifier Pack plugin to function.
Registering a Block Style Modifier
You can easily register your own style modifiers in your theme or custom plugin.
Here are some examples of how to register style modifiers with different category behaviors:
That’s it! You can now select multiple style modifiers for your blocks in the Block Editor.
Example Result in Markup
class="wp-block-cover has-custom-content-position is-position-bottom-left bsm-zoom-hover bsm-fade-in bsm-delay-normal"
It is important to note that the order of classes may affect CSS specificity and styling. You can easily reorder your modifiers with drag/drop functionality in the Block Editor.
