## Automatic Block Inserter

This plugin allows you to insert blocks into specific post areas as well as above or below specific block types. This plugin allows you to manage re-usable content in an organized way for your site.

## Usage

To get started with the Automatic Block Inserter plugin, follow these steps after installation:

### 1️⃣ Creating a New Automatic Block

1. In your WordPress dashboard, locate and click on the "Automatic Block" menu item.
2. Click on "Add New" to create a new block.

### 2️⃣ Creating the content

You can simply create the block content by adding necessary blocks in the WordPress editor as you normally do for posts/pages.

### 3️⃣ Configuring block position

Once you've created the content for your block, you’ll see a control in the sidebar named **"Position"**. Let's configure our block to be displayed after the post content.

💡 You can also display the block based on other block types. Here's a quick video showing how to configure your block to display after the **1st** core image block on the post.

## 🛠️ Position control overview

Here's a quick overview that will help you understand how the positions control works:

1.  **Post Type**: Choose the type of content you want your block to be associated with (e.g., posts, pages).
2.  **Location Type**: Select whether your block should be placed in a specific "post area" or next to a "block type."
3.  **Position**: If you chose "post area," your block could be set to appear within the "post content." For "block type," you’ll get a search-able dropdown menu listing all the available blocks where you can add your new block.
4.  **Location**: Decide if your block should appear **before** or **after** the selected position.
5.  **Offset**: This option is available when you select "**block type**" as your location type. It allows you to specify how many blocks away your new block should be placed from the chosen anchor block.
