Pattern Editor

Pattern Editor is a plugin to help you create and edit patterns for WordPress block themes. It automatically exports patterns on save as PHP files to the active themes patterns directory.

It works with the built-in wp_block post type and adds some minimal UI features to make working with patterns easier. The new Block Pattern editor UI in the Site Editor is supported, and the wp_block post type screen is exposed in the admin menu for quick access.

Features

• Exports assets (images, SVGs, videos) to the active theme’s assets directory.
• Pattern front end previews.
• Export patterns as PHP files.
• Import patterns from PHP files.
• Edit patterns in the block editor.
• Can export to category subdirectories or a single directory.
• Supports the new Block Pattern editor UI in the Site Editor.
