Home Forums Gutenberg 6.3 Block save to meta Reply To: 6.3 Block save to meta

  • Hi, I just wanted to add a note here as it’s the only thread I’m seeing about this recent usePostMeta feature, and I was fortunate to get to discuss some of the aspects (and limitations) of its current implementation (a/o v6.3.4) with one of the plugin developers. In particular, he noted that a block with the feature enabled must be “at the top level” in the editor and, thus, not nested in another block such as a column or group. In my current project, it would be extremely useful if one could nest one of these blocks in at least a limited set of other blocks (e.g. containers such as group, cover, and columns).

    I honestly think this feature is a game-changer in that it allows combining the great editor experience provided by Gutenberg with the power of ACF fields- particularly, in associating the block fields at the post level to allow for querying by field content housed in a block within the post content. I look forward to the evolution of this great feature!
