SoloFilters Image Enhancements

Add Instagram-style CSS filters to images in the WordPress block editor.

About

This WordPress plugin registers a new "Filtered Image" block that lets users pick a named filter preset and adjust its intensity. Filters are applied with CSS only, so they are reversible, lightweight, and the original image keeps its alt text.

Requirements

• WordPress 6.4+
• PHP 7.4+
