GPP 2 alpha - Reusable blocks support
5 replies · Started by George on March 4, 2021
I have a post author block that I am using in two block elements and I want to add it as a reusable block but when I add it and check the reusable block, I get an error.
Hi there,
i am not able to replicate the issue.
I tried converting one of Block Elements to a re-usable Block, then added it to a new Block element and it works ok. What steps did you follow?
With the current issues surrounding reusable blocks i could see this causing issues.
Try adding a GPP 2 dynamic element to a block element and convert that to a reusable block. Then go and check the reusable block. You will see the error.
OK so from the Manage All Reusable Blocks list - editing a dynamic block does throw the error. Which is understandable as the Dynamic Data only exists in the Block Element. Not sure theres much that can be done about that... i have passed to Tom.
Ah, interesting. The dynamic aspects of these blocks are only available when in the GP Elements post type - not the reusable blocks post type.
Making it available in the reusable blocks post type would definitely open a can of worms. Will have to think on this.
Hope you sort something out, Tom, thanks!
