Pattern Wrangler makes managing WordPress block patterns simple and efficient, with features that cater to both beginners and advanced users. Whether you’re organizing patterns for a complex site, a hybrid setup, or just hiding ones you don’t need, Pattern Wrangler has you covered.

Here are the major features:

  • Hide All Patterns – Completely hide patterns from the block editor in one click. This also hides the Patterns menu item.
  • Selective Hiding – Hide core, remote, theme, or plugin patterns while keeping your custom patterns visible. You can also hide synced and unsynced patterns together or separately.
  • Category Management – Disable, map, and rename registered categories from themes and plugins for better organization. This will help you keep local and registered patterns organized together.
  • Output Patterns Anywhere – Use a shortcode to display local patterns in page builders, widgets, your theme,or other blocks.
  • Pattern Preview – Preview a pattern on the frontend with shortcuts in the block editor or from the Patterns post list view.
  • Cross-Site Pattern Copying – Transfer patterns, including the remote images, between WordPress sites effortlessly. This is useful if you’re copying a pattern from one site to another or copying a pattern from a production site to a development site.

Pattern Wrangler integrates seamlessly with block-based and classic themes offering a hybrid setup with unmatched flexibility.
