I want to add an additional block above for a new category and I want to have an option like I can choose what it looks like. With 1 big thumb and 3 small ones or with 6 small ones. I already knew how to add them manually, what I want is I can choose between them on the options page on my wp admin shown below
The original theme have only 4 blocks and 4 options I just added additional two blocks and option by copying the last part of the code. And it was successful, I just want to have an option like If I want the block with big thumbs or the small ones, Or I want to disabled a block in the future without having to edit the code again. I really hope you can help me as I don't have much knowledge on this kind of stuff.
