Some WooCommerce Blocks are not fully compatible with this plugin as they do not use standard WooCommerce filters for generating thumbnails. This is a known limitation of WooCommerce Blocks and not specific to this plugin. You can fix this by using WooCommerce shortcodes instead of the WooCommerce Blocks.
