Block Data Attribute

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. Key Features Add any number of data-* attributes to supported blocks. Name and value fields with input sanitisation built in. Drag-and-drop reordering of attributes within the sidebar panel. Attributes are saved directly in block markup — no post meta, no database overhead. Fully extensible: register additional allowed block types via a JavaScript filter. No build step required — ships as a single plain JavaScript file. Translation-ready. Supported Blocks Out of the box the following core blocks support custom data attributes: core/button core/column core/columns core/group core/heading core/paragraph
