This block allows you to work with shortcodes into Gutenberg like the native WordPress Block, but with a new feature: **You can see ( in many case ) the shortcodes in the backend in a similar way as render in the frontend of the web** Now is very easy to see what your shortcodes are going to show in the web thanks of Gutenberg and this dynamic simple shortcode block. **Do not you see what you expected? Not always is possible to see the shortcode in the backend as in the frontend** because of it is depend on each plugin and also your active theme, but this plugin allow you to try with some options to improve this: *Select to include some CSS of the plugin into Gutenberg editor for each shortcode block. *Select to include some JS of the plugin into Gutenberg editor for each shortcode block. *Hide / Show the input where you put the shortcode to avoid to see it into the editor (see the third Screenshot). What You See in the backend with Gutenberg editor Is ( in many case ) What You Get! and the plugin only enqueue the selected assets if it is necesary to improve the apparience between backend and frontend. ### Feedback and support I would be happy to receive your feedback to improve this plugin.
