# Ultimate Blocks Settings Page Explained

The Ultimate Blocks settings page is where you turn blocks and extensions on or off, roll back to an earlier plugin version, and manage your license. Open it from the **Ultimate Blocks** item in your WordPress admin menu. It has three tabs: **Welcome**, **Blocks** and **Extensions**.

## What you need

- The free [Ultimate Blocks plugin](https://ultimateblocks.com/docs/install-ultimate-blocks/), installed and active.
- An administrator account. Only users who can manage site options see this page.

## How to open the settings page

1. Log in to your WordPress dashboard.
2. Click **Ultimate Blocks** in the left admin menu.
3. Use the tabs at the top to switch between **Welcome**, **Blocks** and **Extensions**.

## Welcome tab

The **Welcome** tab is the starting point. It shows:

- A short video introduction to Ultimate Blocks.
- **Visit Documents:** opens the Ultimate Blocks documentation.
- **Support Forum:** opens the free support forum on WordPress.org.
- Links to the Ultimate Blocks community on **Facebook**, **Twitter** and **YouTube**.
- **Upgrade to PRO**, if you use the free plugin only.

## Blocks tab

The **Blocks** tab lists every Ultimate Blocks block as a card with a toggle.

- **Toggle:** turn a block on or off. A block that is off is removed from the block inserter.
- **See Demo:** open the live demo of that block.
- **Activate All** and **Deactivate All:** turn every block on or off at once.

Changes save right away. The Pro blocks need Ultimate Blocks Pro. Read the full steps in [How to activate and deactivate blocks](https://ultimateblocks.com/docs/how-to-activate-and-deactivate-blocks-in-ultimate-blocks/).

**Before you turn a block off:** posts that already use that block show a “does not include support” message in the editor until you turn it back on.

## Extensions tab

The **Extensions** tab turns site-wide extensions on or off. When an extension is on, its panel appears at the bottom of the **Settings** tab of every Ultimate Blocks block.

- [Animation](https://ultimateblocks.com/docs/animation/) (Pro): animate blocks when they scroll into view.
- [Custom CSS](https://ultimateblocks.com/docs/custom-css/): add your own CSS to a single block.
- [Responsive Control](https://ultimateblocks.com/docs/responsive-control/): hide a block on desktop, tablet or mobile.
- [Visibility Control](https://ultimateblocks.com/docs/visibility-control/) (Pro): show a block only to certain users or on a schedule.

## Version dropdown (rollback)

The version number at the top right of the settings page is also a dropdown. Use it to roll back Ultimate Blocks to an earlier version if an update causes a problem on your site.

1. Click the version number at the top right.
2. Choose the version you want.
3. Read the warning in the popup (“Older versions might be unstable. Do it on your own risk and create a backup.”) and confirm.
4. Wait for the page to reload. The selected version is now installed.

Back up your site first. See [How to roll back to a previous version](https://ultimateblocks.com/docs/roll-back-to-a-previous-version/).

## Account, Contact Us and Add-Ons

The **Ultimate Blocks** menu also has these submenus. They are provided by Freemius, the platform that handles Ultimate Blocks licenses and payments.

- **Account:** see your plan and license, and change, upgrade or deactivate your license. See [How to find your license key and manage your account](https://ultimateblocks.com/docs/find-your-license-key-and-manage-your-account/).
- **Contact Us:** send a message to the Ultimate Blocks team from your dashboard.
- **Add-Ons:** see other DotCamp products you can add to your site.
