Template block used as a container.
The Reusable Template block defines a list of block items.
Example
This is the PHP source for the template for the Block Custom Post Type. When creating a new Block the editor is populated with these blocks.
function oik_block_CPT_template() {
$template = array();
$template[] = ['oik-block/blockinfo', [ 'className' => 'svg64' ] ];
$template[] = ['core/more' ];
$template[] = ['core/paragraph', ['backgroundColor' => 'very-light-gray'] ];
$template[] = ['core/heading', [ 'content' => "Screenshot" ] ];
$template[] = ['oik-block/fields', [ 'fields' => 'featured'] ];
$template[] = ['core/heading', [ 'content' => 'Example'] ];
$template[] = ['core/paragraph', ['placeholder' => 'Type / to choose the sample block' ]];
$template[] = ['core/spacer'];
$template[] = ['core/separator'];
$template[] = ['core/heading', [ 'content' => 'Notes'] ];
$template[] = ['core/list'];
return $template;For more information on how this is used see Block documentation structure.
Notes
- core/template is a registered block defined with
supports.inserter = false. - Therefore a Reusable Template cannot be inserted manually.
- Use Templates to define the initial structure of a custom post type.
- For programming details see the official documentation: Templates
- Since the server may not know how to construct a block, templates are not used when an empty post is created programmatically in PHP.
