However, especially when building a new site, I have found this to be quite a lot of clicks just to make a quick change. This is a simple plugin that adds an entry into the admin menu for quicker direct access to the page. #### How To Use To use the plugin, simply install and activate it. This will add a new ‘Reusable Blocks’ option to the WordPress admin menu. Clicking on this option will take you to the reusable blocks page. ## Installation #### Automatic installation Automatic installation is the easiest way to install this plugin. To do this, simply login to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins menu and click on Add New. Type ‘Reusable Blocks Admin Menu Option’ in the search field that is displayed at the top right. WordPress will automatically start to search. Once you’ve found this plugin you can click on Install Now which will install it. Finally, once installed, the Install Now button will change to Activate. Click on it again to activate the Reusable Blocks Admin Menu Option plugin. #### Manual installation You can also install the plugin manually by downloading it as a zip file using the Download button above. The WordPress codex has [instructions on how to do this](https://wordpress.org/support/article/managing-plugins/#manual-plugin-installation). ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/1182b2cccd905ae6c55dc3bbb129207f4148535c1be8f5b7976f7164c000841f? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Should be in WP by default, nice plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/should-be-in-wp-by-default-nice-plugin/)󠁿 [kraisor](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kraisor/) December 11, 2022 Works great, exactly what was needed. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ce5c44deeb8a677bd765746958439df5f22cb6511246a2058ec2b6fb5b1e50ea? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Simple but very useful](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-but-very-useful-24/)󠁿 [Steve](https://profiles.wordpress.org/claude-haukf/) March 12, 2022 This plugin does one thing very, very well.

It should be part of WP core as it gives direct access to Reusable Blocks list in admin. A feature of Gutenberg block editor that is rather hidden. Reusable blocks is a such promising feature of Gutenberg. Thank you again!
