Asteris Blocks Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
50 free Gutenberg blocks. Full-featured, and free forever.
Asteris Blocks gives you a polished, alphabetised block library covering everything you need to build landing pages, blog posts, and product pages. Every block is complete — nothing is locked behind a paywall, and the plugin never nags you to upgrade.
What you get
- 50 blocks — Hero, Pricing Table, FAQ Accordion (with schema), Recipe Card (with rich results), Comparison Table, Countdown, Cookie Notice, Code Block with syntax highlighter, Image Hotspots, Map (OpenStreetMap), QR Code, Before/After Slider, Table of Contents, and 37 more.
- 12 pre-built patterns — Hero + Stats, Pricing 3-tier, Full landing page, and more — one-click insert.
- 60 block style variations — Hero (minimal / split / gradient), Feature Grid (cards / icons-only / bordered / numbered), Pricing (classic / minimal / bordered / highlighted), and dozens more.
- Newsletter integrations — Mailchimp, MailerLite, ConvertKit, Brevo. API keys encrypted at rest (AES-256-CBC). See “External services” below.
- Schema.org markup — FAQ + Recipe + AggregateRating JSON-LD validates on Google Rich Results Test.
- HTML anchor IDs on every block — link anywhere, jump anywhere.
- Native typography + colour controls on every text-bearing block.
- 100/100 Lighthouse accessibility on Kadence, GeneratePress, Twenty Twenty-Five.
What you do NOT get
- No email-gated features — every one of the 50 blocks is fully functional, free.
- No nag screens, no pop-ups, no “your trial expires” timers in your editor.
- No tracking. No cookies. No analytics. The only outbound connections are the optional third-party services listed under “External services” below, and they run only when you add the relevant block to a page or configure a newsletter provider.
Asteris Blocks is full-featured and free forever — funded by our other products, not by upselling you. If you ever want premium section patterns and pro-level design controls, there’s an optional Asteris Blocks Pro — but the free plugin is complete on its own and never pushes you toward it.
External services
This plugin can connect to the following third-party services. None of them are contacted unless you add the block that uses them to a page, or configure a newsletter provider. No data is sent to us.
Newsletter providers (optional). When you configure a provider and a visitor submits the Newsletter block, the visitor’s email address (and name, if entered) is sent from your server to that provider’s API to create or subscribe the contact. You choose the provider and supply the API key.

Spotify / SoundCloud (Embed block). Adding the Embed block with a Spotify or SoundCloud URL embeds that provider’s player.
