We’ve got exciting news for you! The latest Nexter Blocks v4.5.0 update is packed with enhancements that’ll save you time, make your workflow smoother, and help you design faster, with even more flexibility.
Whether you’re building with the free or pro version, there’s something in it for you.
Let’s walk you through the key updates and show how they can make your next project even better.
1. Presets for Blocks Design Smarter, Not Harder
We’ve introduced ready-made presets for a wide range of Nexter Blocks, making it easier than ever to import ready-to-use templates and speed up your workflow.
Just click, select, and apply a design you like.
No need to start from scratch or tweak every little detail.
Why it’s awesome:
- Save time on layout and design.
- Explore design inspiration without having to leave the editor.
- Maintain consistency across your site with pre-styled options.
- Great for beginners and pros alike, you focus on content, we handle the design.
Over 20+ blocks in the free version and 10+ in Pro now come with presets. It’s like having a designer built right into your editor.
How Does It Work?
When you add a Nexter Block, you now have 2 options:
- Design from Scratch
- Import pre-designed templates
Just click on the ‘Import Pre-designed Templates’ option, and you’ll see a bunch of ready-made Advanced Button presets. Pick the one you like, import it in one click, and skip the hassle of designing from scratch.
Also, you get the Import Presets option in the right editor settings of a block.
2. Smoother Smooth Scroll (Yes, Really)
The Smooth Scroll Navigation block just got a polish. We’ve updated the underlying JavaScript to make scrolling behavior feel more refined and… well, smooth.
Now, your website will glide as smoothly as it looks.
But that’s not all, options in the block now come with a clear subline (an inline description) so you know exactly what each setting does without guessing or trial and error.
Why It’s Helpful:
- Your visitors enjoy a buttery smooth scrolling experience.
- You save time setting things up, with better in-editor clarity.
- Perfect for one-page websites, portfolios, and long-form pages.

3. Google Maps — Set Pins by Address
You asked, we delivered.
Now, you can set a pin on your Google Map block by simply entering an address. No more fiddling with coordinates or dragging a marker manually.
Why It Matters:
- It’s faster and easier to set up maps.
- More accurate placement, especially helpful for service-based businesses or local listings.
Whether you’re using the free version or Pro, this update is all about improving your workflow and output quality.
4. Other Updates
We’ve added other few helpful updates to make your experience even smoother. The Dynamic Repeater Block now works smoothly with FSE theme, so you won’t run into layout issues.
In the dashboard, we’ve introduced an auto-save feature for block toggles, making it easier to manage settings without losing progress.
