Description

IndieBlocks currently registers a single block, “Context,” which takes a URL and “type,” and outputs correctly microformatted HTML. More blocks are on the way.

In combination with a microformats-compatible theme, these help ensure Microformats clients are able to determine a post’s type.

It also comes with “short-form” (Note and Like) custom post types, and a (somewhat experimental) option to add microformats to (all!) block-based themes.

This plugin works really well and is a nice block-based upgrade to the Post Kinds plugin in the main IndieWeb plugin for Likes, Notes, Replies, and Bookmarks. Great Webmention support. I like being able to add the context block anywhere, too. Currently in use on cagrimmett.com.
