Ability to Hide Blocks

WordPress 6.9 now includes a built-in feature to hide blocks, making it easy to tuck content away without deleting it. You can now hide blocks: select a block, click the ellipsis, and choose “Hide”. Hidden blocks are visually removed from the editor, and fully omitted from the published markup. Scripts and styles for hidden blocks are also omitted from the rendered page by default (see WordPress 6.9 Frontend Performance Field Guide for more details).

To unhide a block, open the List View, identify hidden blocks via the “Hidden” icon next to them, open the ellipsis menu again, and choose “Show”.
