Hi, I have a doubt about the plugins. I need to have some custom components in thee HTML editor, the plugins option only works with enterprise plans? thanks
Hi @emiliano, while Builder offers many free plugins, you can only use private plugins with an enterprise plan. Can you please give more details about your tech stack? If you are using our HTML API then custom components are not supported through the API. There is however a workaround with webcomponents which lets you add custom components to your pages.

Hi! thanks for answering. Currently, I have a data model for blogs, and one field (the one that contains the blog post article) is an HTML editor (richText). I also want to be able to render in the article some custom components I have in my code (for example a custom video block, and a scene that receives a URL)… So, looking for a solution, I thought that maybe the HTML editor (richText) might be extended with plugins to receive those components.
thanks
Hi @emiliano, I’m not sure what framework you are using but here is some general guidance on creating a blog. For Shopify hosted sites you can easily create a blog with Builder using this guide . Or to create a blog with Builder and Next.js you can follow this guide and take a look at this example in Github to see how we set up our blog at Builder.io. To add categories and tags you can add custom fields to your blog article model.
