This plugin enables the new WordPress Gutenberg Block Editor for the Downloads post type from Easy Digital Downloads any other plugin or theme that uses a custom post type with the download slug.
Note: This plugin does not extend the Block Editor. If you are looking for a Downloads block to use on other pages or post, see Easy Digital Downloads – Blocks.

- Easy Digital Downloads
- EDD Software Licensing
- EDD External Products
- EDD Invoices
- EDD Manual Purchases
- EDD Recurring Payments
- EDD Sales Recovery
- EDD Stripe Payment Gateway
