Thanks. We have Pro.
But the video starts without saying what/where to create it. Are you creating it in Elements or where?

Also, what's next?

If you can add a step by step for creating the blue box (in Elements like we did?), pulling in the query, etc.

Aah - ok you can built it wherever you need it.
A Block Element - Hook would make sense, then you can hook it into your pages or posts.

Okay, then what's next? How do we display the CPT (title and post) in the blue box? Do we create another element for the blue box like we did already or or global style or...?

OK, will try it. Thank you. This is all new to us. The block editor and GP.

Let us know how you get on :)

Will do! 👍

Note the Order By > Random parameter is a GB Pro feature.

Order is in free. Order By is only in GenerateBlocks Pro.
If you don't have GB Pro then:

1. Add this PHP Snippet to your site:

add_filter( 'generateblocks_query_loop_args', function( $query_args, $attributes ) {
	if ( ! empty( $attributes['className'] ) && strpos( $attributes['className'], 'orderby-rand' ) !== false ) {
		$query_args['orderby'] = 'rand';
	}

	return $query_args;
}, 10, 2 );

2. Edit the Query Loop, select its Grid Block and in Advanced > Additional CSS Class(es) add: orderby-rand

And that will set the WP Query orderby=>rand parameter.

Thanks! But we do have GP and GB pro. Happy to add more code but would like the cleaner drop down if possible?

If you have GB Pro then you should see order and order by in the drop down.
Are both plugins, GB Free and GB Pro up to date ?

Weird. Yes. They're both up to date. Should GB say Pro? In Plugins, GP says Pro but GB doesn't say pro but I paid for both.

Scratch that. GB says pro and GP says premium. So yes, I have paid both. Hmmm, what could it be? Do you want login again?

See my screenshot. I'm getting the Order drop down but not the Order by drop down.

Yeah - send us a login and ill take a look :)
