I'm seeing a minor issue but I'm not 100% sure if I'm using the feature correctly. This is my variation registration code in my custom block: // `index.js` of my custom block
import { registerBlockVariation } from "@wordpress/blocks";
import { __ } from "@wordpress/i18n";
import domReady from "@wordpress/dom-ready";
domReady(() => {
registerBlockVariation("core/group", {
name: "wpcomsp/marquee-content",
title: "Marquee Content",
icon: "editor-table",
description: __("A marquee content block."),
scope: ["block", "inserter"],
attributes: {
isMarquee: true,
layout: { type: "flex", flexWrap: "nowrap" },
className: "wpcomsp-marquee-content",
allowedBlocks: [
"core/paragraph",
"core/heading",
"core/image",
"core/buttons",
],
},
isActive: ["layout.type", "isMarquee"],
});
});I can see the Curiously, when I increase the specificity by adding an additional item in the isActive: ["layout.type", "layout.flexWrap", "isMarquee"],But, trying to insert a Row block ends up inserting a Marquee Content instead. |
Oh, that's very weird, and somewhat concerning -- the block variation inserted being different from the one selected in the inserter seems like there's a very weird disconnect happening. I'm curious, what happens if you try using your code with GB |

What?
Simplify active variation detection for the Group block.
Why?
To simplify code and showcase recent enhancements to active block variation detection.
It might also help with fixing #41303.
How?
By leveraging changes to active variation detection from #62088 and #62031, which allow dot notation for nested attributes (e.g.
layout.type), and picks the variation with the highest specificity if multiple variations match the givenisActivecriteria.Testing Instructions
Insert multiple Group blocks, choosing a different variation each time. Save your post and reload the editor. Verify that the block inspector reflects the correct variation for each block.
