[Resolved] Block Element as a Shortcode?

[Kyle Van Deusen]

I’m curious to know if it’s possible to create a Block Element, then insert it via a shortcode (or something similar)?

I’m really struggling still with creating post loops where I need them. This seemed like it could be some kind of workaround — but I’m not sure!

Hi Kyle,

couple of hackish work arounds.

1. For a block element without the loop:

2. An how to make your own custom loop with its own hook for a block element content template:

Thanks, David! I’ll give these a play and see what I can do!
