Hello,

This is a feature request, but something I think would be useful.

Right now, all of the available bloqs on a field are in a single dropdown menu. I was wondering if you could give us the ability to group different bloq types into multiple dropdowns.

The use case for this is mostly organizational for clients. I would like to have a dropdown for Structural bloqs, another for general content, and another specifically for callouts for example.

As a quick way to see kind of what I mean for this, take a look at the Spoon plugin for Craft. This effectively does exactly what I’m interested in, but for Matrix fields in Craft CMS. I’m attaching a screenshot of how that works.

This would go a long way towards improving ease of use in the admin for clients, and help them better know what kind of bloq they are adding.

Thanks!

Thats an interesting concept. I’ll think about it. I have some higher priority items I need to take care of first.

If you’re interested in doing the work yourself in a custom extension I can add hooks in Bloqs to help facilitate it.

Block grouping is being added to Bloqs 4.3, but it will only be an option if using EE 6 or greater.
