== Extensions ==

= Class Manager =

Blockish adds a **Class Manager** panel to every block in the editor — including core WordPress blocks. Define styles once for a CSS class, then reuse that class across any block on any page. It's the easiest way to keep your design consistent without writing CSS files or editing your theme. Sub-selector support lets you target child elements within a class too.

= MCP AI Extension =

Blockish integrates an advanced **MCP (Model Context Protocol) AI Extension**. Instead of just generating simple text, the Blockish AI acts as a professional web designer right inside your editor:
* **Inline Canvas Previews:** AI-generated layouts appear directly inside your editor canvas in a stylish neon preview wrapper. Review the design visually and click "Accept" to instantly apply it!
* **Native Gutenberg Blocks:** The AI understands and builds real Blockish and WordPress core blocks, complete with complex styling, padding, flexbox, and nested structures.
* **Smart Styling:** The AI reads your active theme's colors and spacing, and integrates perfectly with the Blockish Class Manager to reuse CSS classes intelligently.
* **Full Site Editing (FSE):** You can even ask the AI to modify or build complete FSE templates and template parts!

== Frequently Asked Questions ==
