Business Card Block – present your team and contact info in style vs TablePress – Tables in WordPress made easy

Business Card | Documentation | Pricing | Support | Demo Your contact details are probably sitting on your site as plain text. Someone who wants to call you has to select the number, copy it, switch apps and paste it. Most people will not bother. Business Card Block turns that block of text into a card people can act on. Phone numbers become one tap to call. Email addresses open the mail app. A QR code lets a visitor point a phone camera at the screen and save your whole contact at once, and a Save Contact button hands them a proper .vcf file. You build the card in the WordPress block editor, and place it with a block, a shortcode, or the Elementor widget — whichever suits the page. Who it is for Freelancers and consultants who want a shareable contact card rather than a contact form. Local businesses — clinics, salons, restaurants, trades — where the goal is a phone call. Agencies building profile pages and staff pages for clients. Link-in-bio and about pages that need scan-to-save instead of a row of icons. A card visitors can use, not just read Phone, email, website and address rows become real actions: tel:, mailto: and a map link. WhatsApp, Telegram and Skype open the right app. IMO and WeChat publish no web link of their own, so those show a copy button instead of a broken one. Every action is a proper link or button with a screen-reader label and a visible focus ring, so keyboard and screen-reader visitors get the same card everyone else does. A QR code that saves the contact By default the code carries your details as a vCard, so scanning it offers to add you to the phone’s address book immediately — no browser step in between. You can point it at the page’s own URL or a custom link instead. The code is generated on your server as a sharp SVG and cached, so no QR JavaScript library is loaded for your visitors. Or keep the code out of the way until it is wanted The QR does not have to sit in the layout. Two interactive presentations keep the card focused on who you are, and bring the code forward only when someone wants it: Reveal puts a small QR icon in a corner of the card. Hovering it opens the code across the whole card, and a close button returns to your details. Choose which corner the icon sits in. Interactive Flip gives the card a second side. The front stays exactly as it is and the code moves to the back, positioned wherever you like from nine presets or placed by hand. Both take their background, corners and shadow from the card they belong to, so the new surface looks like the same card rather than a panel dropped on top. Both work on hover, on tap, and from the keyboard, and both respect the reduced-motion setting. A vCard file that actually imports The downloaded .vcf follows the vCard 3.0 spec — correct line endings, proper escaping, structured name and address fields, and full UTF-8 — so accented and non-Latin names arrive intact in iOS Contacts, Google Contacts and Outlook. Readable by search engines Each card can output Schema.org structured data describing the name, job title, employer, phone, email, website and address. Leave it on Automatic, or choose Person, Organization or Local Business yourself. You can switch it off per card if an SEO plugin already covers that page. Design it without writing CSS Choose a layout, then set widths, padding, alignment, backgrounds and text and icon colours from the block sidebar. Add a profile photo and a company logo with mask shapes and shadow styles, and switch on entrance animations with control over duration, delay and stagger. Free version includes One Business Card block with five layouts: Default, Minimal QR, Theme 1, Theme 2 and Theme 3. Name, job title, company, tagline, profile photo and company logo. Ten contact types: Address, Phone, Email, Website, WhatsApp, Telegram, Skype, IMO, WeChat, and a free-form option. Clickable contact actions, with copy-to-clipboard for the apps that have no web link. QR code with a choice of what it encodes, plus size, error-correction level, an optional label and caption, and an optional centre mark using your initials or logo. Three QR presentations: standard, inside the card; a corner icon that opens the code over the whole card; or an interactive flip that turns the card over — each with its own placement options. Downloadable .vcf file with an editable button label. Schema.org output with a choice of Person, Organization or Local Business. Shortcode support, including attributes for reusing one card with a different design or contact value. An Elementor widget, loaded only when Elementor is active. Five entrance animations — Reveal, Slide, Flip, Polaroid and Zoom — with duration, delay, stagger and easing controls. Backgrounds using solid colours, gradients or images, plus padding, alignment, separators, and name, title, company and contact colours. Five avatar mask shapes (circle, squircle, hexagon, blob, diamond), three shadow styles, a zoom hover effect, a monochrome mode for the logo, and overlap or stack branding layouts. A Business Cards screen for managing saved cards, and a blocks manager for turning individual card blocks on and off. Business Card Block Pro The free version builds a complete, publishable card.
