For more details, please see the docs.

Fix compatibility with WordPress 6.6

Highlights:

This version allows you to render blocks with views. You can specify the view template in the "render_callback" parameter as "view: view_name", or if you use block.json file, set the "render" parameter to "view: view_name".

This version also works with MB Builder to allow you to set/edit views with UI. For more details, please see this blog post.

Other changes:

• Allow to render blocks with views
• Improve styling of blocks on sidebar
• Fix $ being escaped in the output

• Fix: rest response for inner blocks in headless mode (#12)
• Fix: add name attribute back
• Add param resolver, so you can use parameter $attributes, $content, $block in render callback/template in any order, or remove them if you don't need them.

Highlights:

The plugin now supports creating blocks with block.json, which aligns with the WordPress's recommended method to create blocks. This allows the blocks created with MB Blocks will be compatible with future development of WordPress and the block editor.

With the support of block.json, the plugin now fully supports Full-Site Editing (FSE). So you can use the blocks in FSE's templates.

This update also makes rendering the block easier by automatically preparing the fields' values and put them directly in the $attributes parameter.

For details, please see the documentation.
