Do I need to replace my images with some custom Gutenberg block to use image mask?

No, this plugin attaches to the native Gutenberg image block, so no need to replace your existing images.

Can I apply my custom image mask?

Sure! You can select a custom image mask file or paste SVG code of your image mask.

I don’t use Gutenberg – is there any way to add an image with mask?

Yes! You can use shortcode [wp-image-mask src="https://url_of_your_image" mask="https://url_of_your_mask_image"].

I needed a way to have irregular looking shapes for photos. I thought I might have to create a custom solution, but was pleased that this plugin did exactly what I needed. I was able to upload SVG images to use as masks to the site media library, and then it was really easy to assign those to be used as masks to images using the default WP image block. I like how the plugin integrates directly into the image block interface. Excellent! I will end up using this plugin on a lot more sites in the future.
