About Fast BlockControl
From the official readme · v1.2.2Description
Fast BlockControl is designed to work seamlessly with the Fast Flow tagging system. Fast Flow Dashboard
You can show or hide any block based on a users Fast Tag.
Multiple Fast Tags can be combined to create various show or hide conditions.
Once your WordPress are tagged they will either be shown the content you select or it will be hidden.
This way you can create a dynamic website which changes with your users interactions.
You can even sync the Fast Tags with various CRM’s so your site can be dynamically updated based in emails opened / clicked etc.
Fast Tags can be used to trigger automations on any other integrated platform which is supported by our growing number Fast Flow addons.
NOTE: Fast BlockControl requires the Fast Flow Dashboard to make use of the Fast Tags and utilise the user tagging.
