When multiple people edit your WordPress site, not everyone should have access to the same blocks and settings. A contributor shouldn’t be able to touch layout blocks. An author shouldn’t be able to alter custom block configurations that affect the entire site.
Multigovernance gives administrators granular, role-based control over which Gutenberg blocks are visible — and which settings within those blocks are accessible — for every user role on your site.
The result is a cleaner editing experience for each user and fewer accidental misconfigurations for you to fix.
Key Features:
- Role-Based Block Visibility: Show or hide any Gutenberg block based on user role. Editors see what they need — nothing more, nothing less.
- Block Settings Control: Grant access to a block while restricting its advanced settings for specific roles, preventing configuration changes without removing the block entirely.
- Works With All Blocks: Supports all default WordPress core blocks and any custom or third-party blocks installed on your site.
- Tailored Editor Per Role: Create a focused, distraction-free editing experience for contributors, authors, editors, and any custom role you’ve defined.
- Prevent Publishing Errors: Limit access to layout-critical or design-sensitive blocks so non-technical users can’t break the structure of your pages.
- No Front-End Impact: All restrictions apply only inside the Gutenberg editor. Your published content and front-end output are never affected.
Govern your block editor. Protect your publishing workflow. Free with Multigovernance.
