Hover Highlights is a simple WordPress plugin that adds a subtle highlight effect to the Gutenberg\/Block Editor. When you hover over a block, it gets highlighted with a dashed outline and a box-shadow. The highlight disappears when you focus on the block to reduce distraction.<\/p>\n\n

This plugin is ideal for content creators who want to visually distinguish individual blocks within the Block Editor.<\/p>\n\n

The code and this readme are mostly written by ChatGPT.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload the hover-highlights<\/code> folder to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n

    Why doesn't the highlight show up?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    The highlight effect only appears when you hover over a block. If you're not seeing the highlight, try moving your mouse over a block.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Is this plugin compatible with other Block Editor plugins?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes, this plugin should work with most other Block Editor plugins.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
