Reviews

Problematic – stay away

tvejacques September 13, 2024 1 reply

QI Blocks gave us tremendous nightmares with clashes with several other plugins. After designing quite a bit with QI blocks we canned it, redesigned with other plugins. But every now and then it comes back to haunt us again – it seems to be buried deep into the system like a virus.

Awesome

Awesome plugin.

No new blocks or improvement in a whole year

bw/a November 14, 2023 2 replies

Update after 3 months: If you love your money and mind, please stay away from Qi Blocks. I’m pretty sure Qi Addons have an awesome experience but my 1 year Qi Blocks experience was awful. I trusted and believed Qode Interactive because my friend used Bridge theme, they seems to update their products often. When I started to use Qi Blocks, my experience complitely different. The product quality is awesome, I’m not gonna lie. But there is nothing new in a whole year. I will switch to TPB and make all the web sites again. I wish I could use the Qi Blocks but with this status, it’s impossible. I’m huge fan of Gutenberg and Qode Interactive. So I wanted to try Qi Blocks Premium and bought last year. But in a whole year they never released any new blocks or improvements. I’m also following Qi Addons (for Elementor) and they’re releasing new addons very offen. This is double standard because Qi Blocks and Qi Addons are same price. Most of creative and useful blocks are not available for Qi Blocks (like Text Gradient, Premium Button, Rotating Image Tiles, Interactive Info Images, Image Marquee, most of the sliders, Business Reviews Google, Social Links). I think Qi Blocks has many potention but Qode Interactive doesn’t focus on their product. I will probably renewal my subscribtion because in the base it’s a great Gutenberg plugin but I don’t suggest Qi Blocks or Qi Theme to anyone. Come on Qode Interactive, developt and release all the blocks for Gutenberg from Elementor. This plugin like in a maintenance mode, they’re only releasing new Google Fonts or minor changes.

Great Plugin
