(edit: sorry for the title, seems like <InnerBlocks> is not allowed in the title…)
Hi everyone 🙂
I’m trying to use <Innerblocks> and have some context to the parent block. For example I want to define an ID in the parent block and all the <InnerBlocks> should use this ID for something. Or maybe on the parent the user can chose the color and all <InnerBlocks> then have the same color (this is only an example, I know CSS^^).
I found some ideas how to achieve this but for now I wasn’t able to really get it working.
Based on the site https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/developers/block-api/block-context/ block context should be the solution to this.
Just create a parent block with attributes and add the context:
"attributes": {
"recordId": {
"type": "number"
}
},
"providesContext": {
"my-plugin/recordId": "recordId"
}
That’s what I tried, of course with PHP:
'title' => __($name),
'attributes' => [
'recordId' => [
'type' => 'number',
]
],
'providesContext' => [
'my-plugin/recordId' => 'recordId'
]
As soon as I add these lines, everything stops working in the backend. So basically the next steps to get the context in the <InnerBlock> is not possible because I can’t configure the parent block.
Does anyone have an idea how to achieve this?
