 * Hey!
 * The technical CSS class is displayed in the “ADDITIONAL CSS CLASS” field. This
   looks wrong: I, as a user, did not enter it there. [Image](https://ibb.co/M8mZ31H)
 * CSS is added when writing custom CSS.

 * Hey [@andreslav](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andreslav/),
 * Yes, we use the CSS class name field of the block to generate an automatic (and
   random) CSS class for the extension to work.
 * The class is only appended if you use the Custom CSS field on that block, and
   will do no harm to your content even if you someday you decide to remove the 
   plugin.
 * There’s no other way to target specific blocks without adding a CSS class. Let
   me know if you have any follow-up questions. 🙂

 * Hey [@hardeepasrani](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hardeepasrani/),
 * If you can’t do it otherwise, then let it be 🙂
 * I just think it’s better to keep this class somewhere inside the plugin/block
   without bringing it into the interface.

 * Hi [@andreslav](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andreslav/),
 * Thank you for your feedback. We’ll keep this in mind for a future version of 
   the plugin, in case it’s possible to implement it like you suggested.
 * Best regards,
