Can I set classes to trigger the ones already used within my theme?
Yes, on the settings page you can add classes.
Will there be more options in the future?
Yes. We are working on integrating the options as well into the Gutenberg blocks, fo e.g. having individial “copy texts” for each block. As well we want to offer more copy-icons.
