- Update or delete blocks placed in region
Installation and Setup
- Install the module as you normally would any module.
- Assign permissions created by this module to the role you want to grant access. Adding or removing themes and/or regions after enabling this module will automatically update on the permissions page.
- Add the following core permissions to allow the role access to the administer blocks pages:

Note: The "Administer blocks" permission also grants full access to all pages related to block content and block content types. To restrict access to those pages, you can use the Block Content Permissions module.
