Twentig radically improves the creation experience in Gutenberg by adding the features still missing from the native editor.
Thanks to this lightweight and coherent extension, the WPDistrib distribution gains efficiency while staying true to the spirit of WordPress and Gutenberg.
Add responsive features to Gutenberg, the native WordPress editor
Gutenberg has improved, but it remains incomplete when it comes to offering a seamless creation experience — especially in responsive design. Twentig fills this gap with a native conditional visibility feature by device: mobile, tablet, desktop. Each block can be hidden depending on the screen size. This option is available directly from the editor’s sidebar, without adding any complex interface. It is marked by the TW tag, making it easy to spot Twentig-specific features.
List the visual and interactive features added by Twentig
Twentig acts as an evolving specification for Gutenberg. The plugin includes features that the WordPress core might adopt in the future. Here is an overview of the concrete improvements:
🚀 Enhanced visual customization
- Animations on native blocks
- Responsive visibility settings (per block)
- Shadow effects, overlays, hover and transition effects
- Decorative shape dividers for Group blocks
🎨 Typographic and structural controls
- Style options for headings, paragraphs, and quotes
- Vertical alignments, spacing, list styles (arrows, checkmarks, dashes, borders… )
- Fine control over multimedia elements: galleries, covers, media & text blocks
📁 Adding a Portfolio content type
Twentig introduces a dedicated content type for portfolios, with project, category, and tag management. A dedicated block displays projects in a grid or custom layout. Page layout is managed directly in Gutenberg, using the familiar Query Loop block logic.
🌐 Integrated Openverse media search
Twentig natively enables Openverse integration in Gutenberg: users can search for royalty-free images directly from the WordPress media library, without installing any additional module.
All these features are available without disrupting the Gutenberg interface. They appear exactly where users expect them, always marked with the TW visual indicator.
Integrate Twentig options into Gutenberg’s native interface
Twentig does not build a layer on top of Gutenberg — it enhances it smoothly, in line with its native structure. Every added option integrates directly into the editor’s sidebar where WordPress expects it. Users don’t need to change habits: they simply gain more power at their fingertips. The TW tag clearly indicates which options come from the extension.
The plugin also provides ready-to-use block compositions (headers, hero sections, testimonials, pricing, galleries, etc.) compatible with FSE themes like Twenty Twenty-Five. These layouts are available directly from the native interface, without third-party tools or manual imports.
Compare Twentig with other plugins like GenerateBlocks
GenerateBlocks was long considered the go-to solution to enhance Gutenberg, especially in WPDistrib. But it relies on proprietary blocks and a custom configuration panel that strays from the native WordPress experience.
Twentig, in contrast, enhances Gutenberg without overloading it:
- No new blocks added
- No interface disruption
- No external logic to learn
Twentig acts as a lightweight overlay on native blocks — and that’s what makes it a more natural choice. While GenerateBlocks introduces its own ecosystem, Twentig builds on WordPress itself and extends it further. For WPDistrib users, this means a shorter learning curve, better interface consistency, and improved efficiency.
🌀 Twentig, an essential plugin naturally integrated into WPDistrib to enhance Gutenberg
Twentig stands out as a strategic plugin for WPDistrib. It not only fills Gutenberg’s current gaps but also anticipates future evolutions. In this way, Twentig becomes a sort of functional lab — a model that Gutenberg itself may eventually follow.
With its responsive tools, advanced styling options, native integrations like Openverse, built-in portfolio system, and layout library, Twentig transforms the WordPress creation experience.
As long as Gutenberg doesn’t offer these features natively,
