I’m trying to create a Gutenberg block with ACF and some interactivity with Alpine.js
Sample:
<button @click="openFaq<?php echo $faq->ID; ?> = !openFaq<?php echo $faq->ID; ?>">
The problem is, the @click and the contents of the double quotes are getting completely removed. If I don’t include the “@” of the “@click” – then everything gets rendered just fine.
WordPress is sanitizing my code by stripping out everything within the @click and I haven’t found a solution so far in all my digging.
Has anyone run into something like this? Anyone have any ideas on how to convince WordPress that I actually wanted my code to be rendered?
Just a guess, but you might need to add the attribute to allowed html.

That’s where I’d start looking.
I appreciate that direction, it has given me new angles to Google.
I’ve found the following:

Nothing quite working just yet. But a new batch of Google Search tabs is still progress.
Was editing the wrong file. Edit the right file, and I got it working. doy.

I did have to switch from “@click” (shorthand) to “x-on:click”
Thanks John! Your suggestion got me Googling in the right direction.
