Did you know you can create custom WordPress blocks with AI — just by describing what you want in plain language?
With Telex, a free, browser-based tool from Automattic, you can type out your idea for a block and watch it come to life right in your browser.
You can then interact with the block, refine it with extra instructions, and download it as a plugin for use on your own WordPress site.
To show you what’s possible, this article lists 12 cool WordPress blocks made with Telex. Each one is accessible via a shared link, so you can explore, remix, and add them to your site.
1. Minesweeper
The Minesweeper is an interactive AI-generated WordPress block that lets you play the classic Minesweeper game on your site.
You can interact with it right inside the post editor or after publishing, whether it’s on a post, page, or any other block area.
Block settings let you adjust the grid’s rows, columns, and mine count.
The puzzle resets automatically on each page load or refresh, and it can be added anywhere blocks are supported.
How to use it on your WordPress site
The Minesweeper block adds a fun, interactive touch to your site and keeps visitors coming back for more.
You can publish it on any post or page to engage your audience — or simply drop it into the editor and enjoy a quick round when you need a break from writing.
2. Rainbow Confetti
The Rainbow Confetti block adds a button to your site that toggles a fun, colorful animation that overlays the entire site.
Its settings let you control the size of the confetti and the speed at which it falls.
You can also switch between random and steady movement styles.
How to use it on your WordPress site
The interactive Rainbow Confetti block adds a fun, eye-catching touch to your site. It’s fully responsive and works seamlessly across all devices.
You can add it to individual posts and pages or even include it in your header template part so it’s always available.
For example, place it at the end of long articles or tutorials so visitors get a playful visual reward for reaching the finish line.
Since these blocks are easy to edit, feel free to remix this one — adjust the confetti’s shape, colors, or animation to match your style.
3. Personality Quiz
The Personality Quiz block lets you add an engaging personality quiz to your WordPress site.
Create your own questions and answers that assign your visitors a personality type or character.
Some of the quizzes you could build include “Which superhero are you,” “What’s your spirit animal,” and “Which TV show character are you?”
You create the cast of characters or personalities and then enter a series of questions and answers. Each question has multiple answers, and each answer points to one of the characters or personality types.
The results are nicely presented and easy to share on social media. Users can retake the quiz with the touch of a button.
How to use it on your WordPress site
The Personality Quiz block makes a great addition to fan sites, entertainment and sports blogs, and any site where characters and personalities are relevant.
This Telex block is perfect if you’re looking for an easy way to add fun, shareable, and engaging interactive content to your site.
4. Accordion Block
The Accordion Telex block helps you add collapsible accordion panels to your content.
These accordions are perfect for FAQs and other question-and-answer-style content.
Multiple accordions can be added to a single post if necessary. Each accordion can have as many panels as needed, and you can add content to the panels through the WordPress editor.
You can also customize the accordions’ colors, font sizes, and border styles through the block settings.
How to use it on your WordPress site
The block works well for any scenario where you want to let visitors control how and when content is displayed, prevent them from being overwhelmed by exposure to too much information, and avoid taking up too much space on a page.
For example, you can use it to create an FAQ or to hide spoilers until visitors choose to see them.
5. Scratcher
The Scratcher Telex block lets you hide text behind a scratchable coating. It supports mouse and touch scratching.
The size of the scratch area, the coating color, and the brush size and shape can be customized. You can also modify the percentage of the coating that must be removed before the content is revealed.
How to use it on your WordPress site
Add an interactive twist to your site with this scratch-off block. It’s perfect for hiding content such as spoilers, special offers, or quiz answers.
6. Pokémon Fun Facts
The Pokémon Fun Facts block adds a button to your site that displays a fun fact about a random Pokémon when clicked.
The block fetches a Pokémon’s name, sprite (its small character image), and Pokédex entry (the short descriptive text shown in the in-game Pokédex) from the PokéAPI each time someone presses the button.
You can use it right away — no API key required.
How to use it on your WordPress site
If your audience would enjoy quick access to random Pokémon facts, this block is for you.
The Pokémon Fun Facts block can be a playful addition to your content or the main highlight of your site — add it wherever you want a bit of extra fun.
7. One More Bite

The block settings let you control the number of dots, the height of the block, and the dots’ speed.
How to use it on your WordPress site
You can add this block anywhere on your site — in posts, pages, or template parts.
It serves as both a subtle decorative element and a fun, interactive way for visitors to relieve stress.
9. Weather Forecaster
The Weather Forecaster block fetches and displays a five-day NOAA weather forecast based on a US zip code entered by the user.
It retrieves the forecast using free APIs (Zippopotam.us and weather.gov).
The block then presents the weather information in an accessible, mobile-friendly layout. Visitors can see a day-and-night forecast for today and the next four days.
How to use it on your WordPress site
Any website that features services or activities affected by the weather can benefit from adding this weather forecast block.
For example, sites for local attractions, outdoor events, or travel experiences could use a five-day forecast to help visitors plan their visit or make informed booking decisions.
10. Scroll Indicator
The Scroll Indicator block adds a small animation that invites visitors to scroll down.
When clicked or tapped, it automatically moves the page, offering an easy, interactive way to explore your site.
The block’s animated icon features a smooth bounce effect to gently catch your visitors’ attention without being too distracting.
You can change the icon’s color, size, and text, and set the block to be hidden once a user starts scrolling.
How to use it on your WordPress site
Add this animated indicator to longer pieces of content to give readers another way to navigate your site.
11. Orbit
The Orbit block lets you add animated, circular text to your site.
Add it to a post, enter your text in the block settings sidebar, and watch it rotate around the circle.
You can adjust the rotation speed and control the spacing between the start and end of the text loop.
How to use it on your WordPress site
The Orbit block is ideal for highlighting key pieces of text in an article or adding animated headings to your posts.
12. Chaos Rolled
The Chaos Rolled block adds an animated dice roll to your WordPress site.
Visitors can click the dice to generate a random result with a smooth animation providing visual feedback.
In the block settings sidebar, you can choose from a range of dice types, from D4 to D20. You can also add multiple dice to simulate higher rolls — for example, two D10 dice to create a D100 roll.
How to use it on your WordPress site
Any website that would benefit from random number generation could use this block.
For example, an educational site could make lessons more engaging by generating random numbers for math problems or selecting tasks.
