    I have all of my plugins disabled yet I don’t have the option to convert reusable blocks to regular blocks. I built my website with 5.7, so this is not an upgrade issue.

    I am using Stackable and Kadence Blocks.

    I have figured it out! “Convert to Regular Block” has been removed from the 3 dot menu… now you need to click on the block icon on the top left of the item and hit the page looking icon a bit to the right. I have a screenshot of this but cannot it post it here. Feel free to reach out to me by leaving a comment below… I will be notified as I am subscribing to this thread.

    @sashaloobkoff thanks for explaining this, couldn’t figure out where the option had gone – no idea who the hell is in charge of WordPress UX but they need sacking! 😕

    @zigojacko, thanks for thanks. It is amazing in development and design how many “rabbit holes” you fall into. Some take hours to figure out. This one is pretty needless.

    I spend hours trying to figure this out. Thanks for sharing. Take my time waisted and multiply by a million users. That’s a million hours lost because of a totally unnecessary change that absolutely makes zero sense. Why devs could not leave “Convert to regular block” in three dot menu really beats me. Totally unintuitive and a great example of how time is waisted unnecessarily. I bet thousands have stopped using “Reusable Blocks” cause they couldn’t figure out how to unlink.

    That was a nightmare to work out but thanks for the tips. Why is there not more information on this simple trick. Thanks again for the info

    Haha! It’s the “page looking” icon is the duplicate/copy icon. Such a bad icon choice by WP! makes no sense.

    I am completely flabbergasted that I can’t figure this out.

    I still don’t see where to find the Unlink button, can someone send me an image or video?

    Am I retarded?
