Summary

Fixes dynamic block rendering for field display, collection, and slider blocks by properly configuring render callbacks and ensuring PHP files are copied during build.

Changes Made

1. Fixed PHP Function Names

  • Changed hyphens to underscores in all render callback function names (PHP doesn't allow hyphens)
  • Updated templates to use {{block_slug|snakeCase}} modifier for proper transformation
  • Fixed in: field-display, collection, and slider blocks

2. Block Registration Updates

  • Updated block.json files to reference function names directly instead of file:./render.php
  • Example: "render": "ma_plugin_render_digital_magazine_field_display"
  • Applied to all dynamic blocks (field-display, collection, slider)

3. Webpack Configuration

  • Added CopyWebpackPlugin to copy render.php files from src/blocks/ to build/blocks/
  • Previously, render.php files weren't being copied during build process
  • Now webpack automatically copies all render.php files to their respective block directories

4. Core Class Enhancements

  • Updated register_blocks() method to:
    • Explicitly require_once render.php files before registration
    • Read block.json and extract render callback function name
    • Pass render_callback argument to register_block_type()
  • Ensures WordPress properly calls PHP render functions on frontend

5. JavaScript Block Registration

  • Added save: () => null to field-display block registration
  • Explicitly marks blocks as dynamic (server-side rendered)
  • Prevents WordPress from saving static HTML content

Files Modified

Templates (block-plugin-scaffold)

  • src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-field-display/render.php
  • src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-field-display/block.json
  • src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-field-display/index.js
  • src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-collection/render.php
  • src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-collection/block.json
  • src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-slider/render.php
  • src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-slider/block.json
  • inc/class-core.php
  • webpack.config.js

Testing

✅ Render.php files now copied to build directory during npm run build
✅ PHP functions properly named with underscores
✅ Block.json correctly references function names
✅ Dynamic blocks use save: () => null
✅ Core class explicitly passes render_callback to WordPress

Breaking Changes

None - this is a bug fix for blocks that weren't rendering on frontend.

Related Issues

Summary of Changes

Hello @krugazul, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request delivers a significant architectural shift by transitioning the plugin scaffold to a JSON-driven content model system. It addresses critical rendering issues for dynamic blocks, ensuring their proper functionality and extensibility. The changes streamline development workflows by automating file copying and enhancing block registration, providing a more robust and flexible foundation for future plugin development.

Highlights

  • JSON-Driven Content Models: Introduced a new JSON-based system for defining and registering WordPress post types, taxonomies, and custom fields. This declarative approach uses JSON files in a dedicated post-types/ directory, enhancing maintainability and version control.
  • Dynamic Block Rendering Fixes: Resolved issues with dynamic block rendering by correctly configuring render callbacks, ensuring PHP function names use underscores instead of hyphens, and updating block.json files to directly reference these functions. This ensures field display, collection, and slider blocks render properly on the frontend.
  • Webpack Configuration for PHP Files: Enhanced the Webpack configuration with CopyWebpackPlugin to automatically copy render.php files from src/blocks/ to build/blocks/ during the build process, addressing a previous oversight where these essential files were not being included.
  • Core Block Registration Logic: Updated the register_blocks() method in the core class to explicitly require_once render.php files before registration and to pass the render_callback argument to register_block_type(), ensuring WordPress correctly invokes the PHP render functions.
  • JavaScript Block Registration for Dynamic Blocks: Added save: () => null to dynamic block registrations, explicitly marking them as server-side rendered and preventing WordPress from saving static HTML content for these blocks.
  • Block Bindings Enhancements: Implemented a comprehensive block bindings system allowing custom field values to be displayed in core blocks (like Paragraph) with optional prefix text. This includes new per-CPT field display blocks and a JavaScript filter for editor controls.
  • Refactored Plugin Generation Logic: The generate-plugin.js script has been significantly refactored to support the new multi-post-type JSON structure, dynamically generate per-CPT blocks, and create src/index.js with block imports, streamlining the plugin scaffolding process.

P1 Badge Return markup from render.php, not just a function

Because block.json sets "render": "file:./render.php", WordPress expects this file to return the rendered HTML directly. This file only declares {{namespace}}_render_{{block_slug}}_field_display() and never returns anything at file scope, so the render callback returns 1/empty and the block renders blank. Either change the render value to the function name and ensure it is loaded, or make render.php return the markup.

inc/class-scf-json-validator.php (1)

10-11: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Duplicate @package directive in docblock.

The file header contains two @package directives:

  • @package example_plugin (Line 10)
  • @package {{namespace}} (Line 11)

Remove the hardcoded example_plugin line to maintain the scaffold's reusability.

Proposed fix
- * `@package` example_plugin
  * `@package` {{namespace}}
.github/instructions/playwright-tests.instructions.md (1)

196-218: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Inconsistent block name references within test example.

The test example has mixed terminology:

  • Line 208: {{name}} Custom (search text)
  • Line 212: {{name}} Card (option name)
  • Line 216: {{name}} Card (document name)

For consistency, update all references to use the same naming pattern.

Proposed fix
 		await test.step('Insert block', async () => {
-			await page.getByRole('option', { name: '{{name}} Card' }).click();
+			await page.getByRole('option', { name: '{{name}} Custom' }).click();

Malformed Markdown heading.

Line 83 shows -## Agent & Automation with a leading hyphen before the heading marker. This will render incorrectly in Markdown as a list item containing heading text rather than a proper section heading.

inc/class-repeater-fields.php (3)

5-10: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Package tag uses hardcoded value instead of placeholder.

The @package DocBlock tag uses a hardcoded example_plugin instead of the mustache placeholder, breaking scaffold reusability.

📝 Proposed fix
 /**
  * Repeater and Flexible Content Fields using Secure Custom Fields.
  *
- * `@package` example_plugin
+ * `@package` {{textdomain}}
  * `@see` https://wordpress.org/plugins/secure-custom-fields/
  * `@since` 1.0.0
  */

As per coding guidelines: "Ensure all plugin class files use mustache-style placeholders."


91-101: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Post type value is hardcoded.

The location rule uses hardcoded 'example-plugin' instead of the {{slug}} placeholder, which will cause the field group to target the wrong post type in generated plugins.

🐛 Proposed fix
 				'location' => array(
 					array(
 						array(
 							'param'    => 'post_type',
 							'operator' => '==',
-							'value'    => 'example-plugin',
+							'value'    => '{{slug}}',
 						),
 					),
 				),

103-182: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Entire second field group uses hardcoded values instead of placeholders.

The "Flexible Content Field Group for sections" (lines 103-182) uses hardcoded values throughout: group_example_plugin_sections, 'example-plugin' text domain, field_example_plugin_* keys, and 'example-plugin' post type. This breaks the scaffold's reusability.

All occurrences need to be replaced with mustache placeholders consistent with the first field group.

🐛 Key replacements needed
 		acf_add_local_field_group(
 			array(
-				'key'      => 'group_example_plugin_sections',
-				'title'    => __( 'Item Sections', 'example-plugin' ),
+				'key'      => 'group_{{namespace}}_sections',
+				'title'    => __( 'Item Sections', '{{textdomain}}' ),
 				'fields'   => array(
 					array(
-						'key'          => 'field_example_plugin_sections',
-						'label'        => __( 'Content Sections', 'example-plugin' ),
-						'name'         => 'example_plugin_sections',
+						'key'          => 'field_{{namespace}}_sections',
+						'label'        => __( 'Content Sections', '{{textdomain}}' ),
+						'name'         => '{{namespace}}_sections',

Apply similar replacements to all keys, names, text domains, and the location post_type value throughout lines 103-182.

As per coding guidelines: "Always use {{variable}} format with double curly braces for mustache template placeholders."

In @.github/schemas/plugin-config.schema.json:
- Around line 681-696: The "blocks" schema's default contains
["collection","slider"] but the "items.enum" only lists "collection", causing
the default to fail validation; update the "blocks" property's "items.enum" (the
enum under the "blocks" definition) to include "slider" as an allowed string (or
alternatively change the "default" to only use values present in the enum) so
the default passes validation—refer to the "blocks" property and its
"items.enum" entry to make the change.
- Around line 137-142: The schema's "post_types" definition has a conflicting
"default": [] and "minItems": 1 causing the default to fail validation; update
the "post_types" entry to make them consistent by either removing "minItems" or
supplying a non-empty default array (e.g., include one default post type string)
so the default satisfies the constraint; target the "post_types" schema object
and adjust the "minItems" or "default" property accordingly.

In `@inc/class-block-bindings.php`:
- Line 10: The class declaration uses Block_Bindings which lacks the required
PascalCase namespace prefix; rename the class to
{{namespace|pascalCase}}_Block_Bindings and update all internal references
accordingly (e.g., any instantiation, type hints, static calls, or class_exists
checks referencing Block_Bindings) to the new
{{namespace|pascalCase}}_Block_Bindings identifier so the class name follows the
project's PascalCase namespace convention.

In `@inc/class-content-model-manager.php`:
- Around line 381-382: Remove the file-level static initialization call
Content_Model_Manager::init() to avoid duplicate initialization because an
instance is already created via new Content_Model_Manager() in class-core.php;
locate and delete the standalone Content_Model_Manager::init(); invocation
(leaving the class and its init method intact) so initialization happens only
through the class constructor/normal instantiation.
- Around line 42-53: The class is being initialized twice because the init()
method is invoked both at file-include time and again from
Content_Model_Manager::__construct(), causing two add_action registrations that
call load_and_register(); remove the file-level/init-at-include-time invocation
so that the single initialization happens when Core instantiates the class (new
Content_Model_Manager()), or alternatively remove the call to self::init() from
__construct() so init() is only executed once—ensure only one of
Content_Model_Manager::__construct() or Content_Model_Manager::init() is invoked
and that load_and_register is registered exactly once.

In `@inc/class-json-loader.php`:
- Around line 44-49: The json path in load_configurations() is computed
incorrectly by using dirname( dirname( __DIR__ ) ) which climbs two directories;
update the calculation for $json_path inside the load_configurations() method to
use dirname( __DIR__ ) .'/post-types/' so the path resolves from the plugin root
when this file (inc/class-json-loader.php) is in the inc/ directory; ensure you
update the $json_path assignment (and any related path logic) accordingly.
- Around line 216-217: Remove the file-level side-effect call to
JSON_Loader::init() at the bottom of inc/class-json-loader.php and instead
invoke JSON_Loader::init() from the central bootstrap path (for example from the
Core class during initialization). Concretely: delete the standalone
JSON_Loader::init() call in the class file and add a call to JSON_Loader::init()
inside the Core initialization flow (e.g., Core::__construct or a dedicated
Core::init_json_loader() method) so the JSON_Loader class is only initialized
explicitly by the bootstrap/Core rather than on file include.

In `@inc/class-scf-json-validator.php`:
- Line 27: Rename the class declaration SCF_JSON_Validator to
{{namespace|pascalCase}}_SCF_JSON_Validator and update every reference to that
symbol (instantiations, class_exists checks, type hints, extends/implements,
docblocks and any static method calls) to use the new name; ensure the class
name in the declaration (class SCF_JSON_Validator) is replaced with class
{{namespace|pascalCase}}_SCF_JSON_Validator and run a project-wide
search/replace for SCF_JSON_Validator to avoid broken references.

In `@inc/class-scf-json.php`:
- Line 27: Rename the class SCF_JSON to include the project's PascalCase
namespace prefix (restore it to {{namespace|pascalCase}}_SCF_JSON) so it follows
the coding guidelines and avoids collisions; update the class declaration (class
SCF_JSON) and any references/instantiations or static usage of SCF_JSON
throughout the codebase to the new prefixed name
({{namespace|pascalCase}}_SCF_JSON) to ensure consistency.

In `@scripts/validate-post-types.js`:
- Around line 33-35: Update the schemaPath to point to the actual schema file by
changing schemaPath (and postTypesDir if used) to path.join(__dirname,
'../.github/schemas/post-types.schema.json') so the existence check for
"schema.json not found!" succeeds; then add file-based logging that writes
INFO/WARN/ERROR messages to a file named
logs/validate-post-types-{timestamp}.log (create logs dir if missing), using the
same logger used elsewhere or a simple fs append wrapper in this script, and
ensure validation output paths and functions (e.g., any validateSchema or main
validation routine) write appropriate INFO for successes, WARN for recoverable
issues, and ERROR for fatal validation failures to that log file.

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-collection/block.json:
- Line 5: Replace the invalid custom category placeholder in each block.json by
setting the "category" field to the validated core-category placeholder: change
"category": "{{slug}}" to "category": "{{block_category}}" in the three files
(the {{block_slug}}-collection/block.json,
{{block_slug}}-field-display/block.json, and {{block_slug}}-slider/block.json)
so the category value is constrained to one of WordPress core categories (text,
media, design, widgets, theme, embed); ensure the placeholder {{block_category}}
is wired to only accept those core values where the block scaffolding injects
configuration.
- Around line 1-9: The block.json for the "{{slug}}/{{block_slug}}-collection"
block is missing required metadata and has invalid entries; add a top-level
"$schema" string and a numeric "version" field, trim the "keywords" array to at
most three relevant items (e.g., keep "collection", "{{cpt_slug}}", "query"),
and enable typography support by adding "supports": {"spacing": true,
"typography": true} (or merging into an existing supports object) so the block
adheres to schema validation and block.json conventions.

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-field-display/editor.scss:
- Around line 7-18: Rename the CSS selectors to use the plugin namespace and BEM
element naming: change the wrapper selector from
.wp-block-{{slug}}-{{block_slug}}-field-display to
.wp-block-{{namespace}}-{{block_slug}}-field-display (replace {{slug}} with
{{namespace}}) and change the inner .field-display-value to a namespace-prefixed
BEM element like .{{namespace}}-field-display__value; update the corresponding
markup class names in index.js and render.php to match these new selectors so
the CSS and templates stay in sync.

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-field-display/style.css:
- Around line 7-12: The block uses inconsistent wp-block prefix and a
non-namespaced inner class: update the selectors and markup to use the
namespace-prefixed BEM element for the inner field (replace occurrences of class
"field-display-value" with a namespaced BEM element, e.g.
"namespace-{{block_slug}}__field-display-value") and change the block wrapper
selector from ".wp-block-{{slug}}-{{block_slug}}-field-display" to the matching
namespace form (e.g. ".wp-block-{{namespace}}-{{block_slug}}-field-display");
update all references in render markup (class="field-display-value"), JS
(className="field-display-value") and CSS selectors (.field-display-value) to
the new namespaced BEM class so they remain consistent.

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-slider/render.php:
- Around line 14-17: The current render returns a hardcoded wrapper so editor
settings (align, customClassName, spacing, color) are not applied; replace the
static wrapper with attributes from get_block_wrapper_attributes() by calling
get_block_wrapper_attributes() (e.g., $wrapper_attributes =
get_block_wrapper_attributes()) and using it on the block container instead of
the hardcoded class "wp-block-{{namespace}}-{{block_slug}}-slider", keeping the
inner content (esc_html__( 'Slider block output.', '{{textdomain}}' )) intact so
alignment, custom classes and inline styles from the editor are output on the
front end.

Potential single-quote injection in array-to-PHP conversion.

String replacement approach may cause unintended substitutions.

The sequential replace() calls on Lines 1007-1010 can cause cascading replacements if post type names contain substrings of each other. For example, if firstPostType.slug is "post" and postType.slug is "blog_post", the replacement could affect unintended parts of the content.

Consider using word-boundary-aware replacements or a single-pass replacement strategy to avoid this risk.

🔧 Suggested approach using word boundaries
-				// Replace the first post type's slug with the current post type's slug
-				// Handle both underscore version (for variables) and dash version (for block names)
-				content = content.replace(new RegExp(firstCPTDasherized, 'g'), currentCPTDasherized);
-				content = content.replace(new RegExp(firstPostType.slug, 'g'), postType.slug);
-				content = content.replace(new RegExp(firstPostType.singular, 'g'), postType.singular);
-				content = content.replace(new RegExp(firstPostType.plural, 'g'), postType.plural);
+				// Replace the first post type's slug with the current post type's slug
+				// Use word boundaries to prevent partial matches
+				const escapeRegex = (str) => str.replace(/[.*+?^${}()|[\]\\]/g, '\\$&');

+				content = content.replace(new RegExp(`\\b${escapeRegex(firstPostType.singular)}\\b`, 'g'), postType.singular);

Dynamic string in translation function prevents proper localization.

Using a variable ($label) as the first argument to __() prevents translation tools from extracting these strings. Translation extraction tools like WP-CLI's wp i18n make-pot cannot detect dynamic strings.

Consider one of these approaches:

  1. If labels come from JSON files, ensure those JSON files are processed by your translation workflow
  2. Use _x() with a static context if the set of possible values is known
  3. Document that style labels in JSON should use translation-ready keys that map to pre-translated strings

Additionally, the coding guidelines specify that block implementations should be placed in src/blocks/{{slug}}-{block-name}/ with the namespace prefix. Consider either:

  1. Updating Line 289 to match the new convention, or
  2. Reverting to the prefixed pattern if consistency with existing guidelines is required.

66-68: Improve focus visibility for pagination buttons.

The focus outline on pagination buttons uses outline: 2px solid var(--wp--preset--color--primary) which may not provide sufficient contrast against the button's background of the same primary color. Consider adding outline-offset to ensure the focus indicator is visible.

Proposed fix

8-14: Consider adding namespace prefix to inner element class.

The .field-display-value class lacks the namespace prefix required by coding guidelines. Per the guidelines, all element classes should use namespace prefix following BEM convention.

 .wp-block-{{slug}}-{{block_slug}}-field-display {
-	.field-display-value {
+	&__value {
 		margin: 0;
 		
 		strong {
 			font-weight: 700;
 		}

This produces .wp-block-{{slug}}-{{block_slug}}-field-display__value which follows BEM element naming with the block's namespace prefix.

As per coding guidelines: "CSS/SCSS selectors must follow BEM naming convention with namespace prefix."

src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-collection/editor.scss (2)

30-45: Avoid double-element BEM selectors for item sub-elements.

74-89: Use get_block_wrapper_attributes() for block wrapper.

154-157: Add explicit save: () => null for dynamic block.

Per the PR objectives, dynamic blocks should explicitly use save: () => null to prevent static HTML saving. This makes the block's dynamic nature explicit and prevents potential issues with block validation.

♻️ Proposed fix
 registerBlockType(metadata.name, {
 	...metadata,
 	edit: Edit,

64-69: Consider user-facing error feedback.

The catch block logs errors to the console but provides no UI feedback to editors. Consider adding a Notice or displaying an error message in the inspector panel when the API fails.

143-161: Consider cleaning up injected style elements.

Style elements are injected into the editor document but may accumulate if blocks are removed. While the unique ID prevents duplicates, consider cleaning up styles when blocks are deleted to prevent DOM bloat in long editing sessions.

156-157: Clarify placeholder guidance for multi-entity support.

The guidance now correctly advises using specific placeholders like {{cpt_slug}}, {{cpt2_slug}}, etc. However, there's a slight contradiction: the text says "Do NOT use generic placeholders like {{slug}}, {{cpt_slug}}" but then lists {{cpt_slug}} as an example of a specific placeholder to use. Consider rewording for clarity.

📝 Suggested clarification
-**WARNING:** When building plugins that support multiple custom post types (CPTs), taxonomies, or custom fields, you MUST use specific mustache placeholders for each entity. Do NOT use generic placeholders like `{{slug}}`, `{{cpt_slug}}`, or `{{taxonomy_slug}}` in your templates or code. Instead, use numbered or uniquely named placeholders for each entity, such as `{{cpt_slug}}`, `{{cpt2_slug}}`, `{{taxonomy1_slug}}`, `{{taxonomy2_slug}}`, `{{field1_name}}`, etc.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Mixed static and instance patterns may cause double initialization.

The class has a constructor that calls static::init(), but init() at line 381-382 is also called at file include time. Additionally, per the relevant code snippet from inc/class-core.php, the Core class already instantiates this class with new Content_Model_Manager();.

This means:

  1. File is included → init() called → hook added
  2. Core instantiates → constructor calls init() again → duplicate hook added

The init action hook would fire load_and_register() twice.

🐛 Proposed fix
 public function __construct() {

Use a WordPress core block category instead of custom category placeholder.

The category field must use one of the WordPress core categories: text, media, design, widgets, theme, or embed. The current {{slug}} placeholder is not a valid core category, even though the plugin registers it as a custom category elsewhere. For consistency with block.json standards and the stated coding guidelines, use the {{block_category}} placeholder which should be constrained to valid core category values.

Proposed fix
-  "category": "{{slug}}",
+  "category": "{{block_category}}",

Note: This applies to all three block.json files in the scaffold ({{block_slug}}-collection, {{block_slug}}-field-display, and {{block_slug}}-slider).

Update selectors to use namespace prefix and follow BEM naming convention.

The wrapper class should use {{namespace}} instead of {{slug}}, and the inner class .field-display-value must be namespace-prefixed and follow BEM element notation.

🐛 Proposed fix

 	}
 }

Update corresponding markup in index.js (line 146) and render.php (line 85) to use the new class name.

Per coding guidelines: All CSS selectors must use namespace prefixes derived from the plugin namespace variable and follow BEM naming convention with namespace prefix.

Update both markup and CSS selectors to use namespace-prefixed BEM naming consistently.

The field-display block uses {{slug}} for the wp-block prefix while the slider block uses {{namespace}}, creating an inconsistency. Additionally, the inner element class .field-display-value lacks a namespace prefix and doesn't follow BEM naming, violating the coding guideline requiring all classes to use namespace prefixes.

Both the markup classes (in render.php and index.js) and CSS selectors must be updated together. Change field-display-value to use the namespace prefix with BEM element syntax.

Use get_block_wrapper_attributes() to properly support block editor features.

The slider block declares align, customClassName, spacing, and color supports in block.json, but the render.php uses a hardcoded wrapper div that doesn't apply these settings. The get_block_wrapper_attributes() function automatically includes alignment classes, custom classes, and style attributes set in the editor, ensuring these features work on the front end.

Code Review

This pull request introduces a significant and well-executed refactoring of the plugin scaffold, moving from a static structure to a flexible, JSON-based content modeling system for post types, taxonomies, and fields. The changes are extensive, touching everything from the generator script and configuration schemas to the core PHP classes and documentation. The fixes for dynamic block rendering, which motivated the PR, are correctly implemented by updating PHP function names, block.json files, and the Webpack configuration.

I've identified a few areas for improvement:

  • A potential for configuration errors due to a loosened validation rule in the main schema.
  • A minor contradiction in the updated documentation regarding placeholder usage.
  • An inconsistency in CSS class naming for one of the blocks, which could prevent styles from being applied.

Overall, this is a very strong contribution that greatly enhances the scaffold's capabilities and maintainability. My feedback aims to polish these excellent changes.

The BEM class name for this block is constructed using wp-block-{{namespace}}-{{block_slug}}-collection. However, block.json defines the block's name as {{slug}}/{{block_slug}}-collection, which will result in WordPress generating the CSS class wp-block-slug-block-slug-collection. Since {{namespace}} is the underscored version of {{slug}}, this creates a mismatch.

To ensure styles are applied correctly, the SCSS variable should be defined using {{slug}} to match the block's auto-generated class name. This inconsistency also appears in style.scss and view.js for this block.

Setting additionalProperties to true at the root of the schema significantly relaxes validation, as it will no longer flag misspelled or unknown top-level properties as errors. This could lead to configuration mistakes going unnoticed. If the goal is to allow for future extensibility, consider keeping this false and updating the schema as needed, or defining a dedicated extensions object with additionalProperties: true to contain custom data. This would provide a better balance between flexibility and strictness.

There appears to be a contradiction in the documentation regarding placeholder usage. The warning on line 156 advises against using generic placeholders like {{cpt_slug}}, recommending specific, numbered ones instead. However, the code example here was updated to use register_post_type( '{{cpt_slug}}', ... );. For clarity and to prevent contributor confusion, the example should probably align with the warning and demonstrate the use of specific placeholders (e.g., {{cpt1_slug}}) if the generator's loop relies on them.

40-83: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Fix malformed example blocks and make structured inputs/outputs machine-parseable.
The “questions array/config/schema” blocks contain prose and mismatched braces, which makes the spec non-deterministic for automation. Replace with valid JSON/YAML and explicit input/output schemas.

As per coding guidelines: "Define deterministic behaviour: specify inputs, outputs, and error shapes in agent specs so downstream automation can parse responses consistently."


603-705: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Add required spec sections (guardrails, validation tasks, changelog).
The spec is missing safety guardrails referencing AGENTS.md/SECURITY.md, at least three validation tasks (normal/edge/failure), and a changelog with updated version/last_updated.

As per coding guidelines: "Front-load safety: guardrails ... must cite AGENTS.md and SECURITY.md", "Provide at least three validation tasks...", and "Keep a changelog section in each agent specification file; update version, last_updated, and changelog entries whenever behaviour, tools, or guardrails change."

Frontmatter must be the first content in docs/README.md.

The new “SCF-Driven Content Model” section appears before the frontmatter block, which violates the docs frontmatter requirement and can break tooling that parses metadata. Move the section below the frontmatter block.

🤖 Fix all issues with AI agents
In @.github/agents/generate-plugin.agent.md:
- Around line 1-9: The YAML frontmatter (starts with --- and contains
name/description/tools/permissions) must be moved to the very top of the file so
it is the first content in the agent spec; remove the heading "SCF-Driven
Content Model" and the paragraph that precede it, then ensure the frontmatter
follows the template fields (include accurate metadata keys such as version,
last_updated, status, owners) and that the file is based on the
`.github/agents/template.agent.md` structure with placeholders replaced and
metadata updated; update the file's frontmatter block (the existing
name/description/tools/permissions) to match that template and validate schema.
- Around line 5-9: Update the agent frontmatter to include the missing metadata
keys (add version, last_updated, status, owners, and references) and make the
permissions array cover every tool listed in the tools array (e.g., add network
for 'web', github:repo and github:issues for GitHub tools, and any other
specific permission names required by 'vscode', 'execute', 'read', 'edit',
'search', 'agent', 'todo'); ensure the references field explicitly includes
AGENTS.md and .github/instructions/agent-spec.instructions.md as required, and
keep the existing name, description, tools, and permissions fields aligned and
syntactically valid in the frontmatter.

In `@docs/JSON-POST-TYPES.md`:
- Around line 1-5: The new markdown lacks the required frontmatter block; add a
YAML frontmatter at the top of docs/JSON-POST-TYPES.md containing the keys
title, description, category, type, audience, and date (populate with
appropriate values for this doc) so the file conforms to the project's
docs/**/*.md frontmatter requirement.

In `@inc/class-core.php`:
- Around line 92-110: The code calls json_decode on each $block_json and then
accesses $block_metadata['render'] which can trigger PHP notices when
json_decode returns null; update the block processing in the loop to verify
$block_metadata is an array (e.g. is_array($block_metadata)) before reading the
'render' key, only set $args['render_callback'] when $block_metadata is a valid
array, contains a string 'render', and function_exists for that value, and
continue to call register_block_type($block_dir, $args) otherwise (leaving $args
empty) to gracefully handle invalid block.json files.

In `@SCF-JSON-REGISTRATION-CHANGES.md`:
- Around line 160-174: The fenced file-tree block in
SCF-JSON-REGISTRATION-CHANGES.md lacks a language tag (triggering MD040); fix it
by adding a language identifier after the opening triple backticks (e.g.,
```text or ```bash) for the block that contains the tree listing (the block
showing plugin-name/ and scf-json/ with files like post-type-webinar.json,
taxonomy-brand.json, group_webinar_fields.json, etc.), so the Markdown linter
recognizes it as a code block.

In `@scripts/generate-plugin.js`:
- Around line 1311-1383: Field keys and group keys are currently generated
without the plugin slug, risking collisions; update the scf field and group key
generation to prefix with the plugin slug (e.g., use a pluginSlug or
config.slug). Specifically, change the fieldKey creation in the fields.map
(symbol: fieldKey) to include the slug (for example
`${pluginSlug}_field_${postType}_${field.name}`), update the fieldGroup.key
(symbol: fieldGroup.key) to `${pluginSlug}_group_${postType}_fields`, and also
prefix the output filename written to outputPath so the JSON file name is unique
to the plugin.

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-collection/block.json:
- Around line 72-75: The block.json uses a deprecated function-name render
string (e.g. "render":
"{{namespace}}_render_{{block_slug|snakeCase}}_collection"); replace that value
with the file-based renderer string "file:./render.php" for this block and
similarly update the other two blocks (`-field-display` and `-slider`) so they
use "render": "file:./render.php" instead of the function name; ensure the
existing render.php in each block folder will be used.

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-collection/render.php:
- Around line 15-17: Replace the hardcoded wrapper div in the render function
with WordPress's get_block_wrapper_attributes(): call
get_block_wrapper_attributes() to get the standardized, escaped attributes
string and use it as the opening wrapper (e.g. "<div " .
get_block_wrapper_attributes() . ">"), then output the inner content (keeping
esc_html__() for the paragraph) and close the div; update the return value in
render.php to concatenate the wrapper attributes instead of the hardcoded class
string so the block benefits from core wrapper handling.

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-field-display/block.json:
- Around line 6-8: The block.json contains an invalid placeholder for the block
category: the "category" property is set to "{{slug}}"; replace this with one of
the allowed core block categories (text, media, design, widgets, theme, or
embed) — e.g., change the "category" value to "widgets" or another appropriate
core category in block.json (the "category" property) or, if you truly need a
custom category, register that custom category via registerBlockCategory before
using it.
- Around line 10-15: The "keywords" array in block.json currently has four
entries ("field", "meta", "custom", "{{cpt_slug}}") but must be trimmed to a
maximum of three; edit the "keywords" array in
src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-field-display/block.json (the "keywords" key) and
remove one of the four entries (for example drop "{{cpt_slug}}") so only three
terms remain.
- Around line 21-36: Add anchor support by updating the supports object in
block.json: inside the existing "supports" block (where "html", "align",
"color", "typography", and "spacing" are defined) add "anchor": true so the
block can accept deep-link anchors; ensure the new key is at the same level as
"align" and other support flags to match the scaffold convention.

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-field-display/index.js:
- Around line 25-36: Edit currently destructures context and calls useEntityProp
unguarded; if context is undefined this breaks. Update the Edit component to
first verify context and its postId/postType (e.g., if (!context ||
!context.postId || !context.postType) return a placeholder UI or set fieldValue
to fallback), then only call useEntityProp when postType and postId are present;
adjust logic around fieldValue/fallbackText accordingly so useEntityProp is
never invoked with undefined postType/postId (references: Edit, context, postId,
postType, useEntityProp, fieldValue).

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-field-display/render.php:
- Around line 29-45: Sanitize and guard the incoming field key before using it:
replace direct use of $attributes['fieldKey'] by running it through
sanitize_key() and assign back to $field_key, then check is_protected_meta(
$field_key ) and bail (return empty string) if it’s protected; also ensure you
only expose meta when the current user has appropriate capability (e.g., verify
current_user_can('edit_post', $post_id) or another suitable capability) before
calling get_post_meta( $post_id, $field_key, true ).
- Around line 74-88: The render uses a manually built $wrapper_classes and
sprintf to output the wrapper (see $wrapper_classes, $attributes, $output,
sprintf), which ignores block supports (colors, typography, spacing); replace
the manual class assembly and esc_attr( implode(...) ) wrapper with attributes
returned from get_block_wrapper_attributes() and use those attributes in the
output (call get_block_wrapper_attributes( $attributes ) to obtain the wrapper
string/array and inject it into your div instead of building $wrapper_classes)
so editor-set color/typography/spacing classes and styles render on the
frontend.

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-slider/render.php:
- Around line 12-13: Add a full DocBlock above the render callback function
{{namespace}}_render_{{block_slug|snakeCase}}_slider: include a short imperative
summary on the first line, an `@since` tag with the version this was introduced,
`@param` tags for $attributes (array), $content (string), and $block
(WP_Block|null) with brief descriptions, and an `@return` tag indicating it
returns a string (rendered block HTML). Ensure the DocBlock follows WordPress
PHPDoc style and is placed immediately above the function declaration.
🧹 Nitpick comments (4)
src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-field-display/block.json (1)

17-20: Use file-based render reference for dynamic blocks

The schema guidance prefers render: "file:./render.php" so the render file is discovered directly from block.json. Consider switching back to the file reference.

Suggested change
-	"render": "{{namespace}}_render_{{block_slug|snakeCase}}_field_display",
+	"render": "file:./render.php",
As per coding guidelines: For dynamic blocks in WordPress 6.5+, use `render: file:./render.php` in block.json (PRIMARY method).
src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-field-display/render.php (1)

2-20: Complete PHP DocBlocks with required tags and summary tense

The file header and function DocBlocks are missing @since, and the function summary should be third-person singular (e.g., “Renders…”). Please add the required tags (and file-level @link/description if applicable).
As per coding guidelines: Every function in WordPress PHP must include @since, and file headers should include summary, description, @package, @since, and @link.

src/blocks/{{block_slug}}-field-display/index.js (1)

1-7: Add JS file header JSDoc with required tags

Current header is a general comment and lacks the required @file, @link, @author, and @since tags. Please add a proper file-level JSDoc block.
As per coding guidelines: Include file header JSDoc blocks in all WordPress JavaScript files when possible. Use @file, @link, @author, and @since tags.

docs/GENERATE_PLUGIN.md (1)

154-187: Clarify placeholder guidance: it currently contradicts itself.

The warning says “Do NOT use generic placeholders like {{cpt_slug}},” but the same paragraph and examples later recommend {{cpt_slug}}. Please adjust the text to either (a) disallow only {{slug}} for CPTs/taxonomies or (b) require numbered placeholders ({{cpt1_slug}}, {{cpt2_slug}}) consistently.

As per coding guidelines: “docs/**/*.md … required frontmatter (title, description, category, type, audience, date).”

WordPress block Edit component context prop behavior when block is outside context provider

Repository: lightspeedwp/block-plugin-scaffold

Length of output: 176


🌐 Web query:

WordPress block usesContext prop undefined Edit component behavior

💡 Result:

If your block declares usesContext but context is undefined in your Edit component, it means no context values are being provided to your block at that moment (or you’re not actually registering usesContext in the final block settings that WordPress sees).

Key points / expected behavior:

  • A descendant block only receives values in edit({ context }) if:
    1. It declares usesContext: [ 'namespace/key' ], and
    2. An ancestor block in the current hierarchy declares providesContext: { 'namespace/key': 'someAttribute' } (values come from the ancestor’s attributes). (developer.wordpress.org)
  • The context values are available in edit (JS) and render_callback (PHP), but not in save. (developer.wordpress.org)

Practical fixes:

  1. Ensure usesContext is in the real registration
  • If you use block.json, put it there (or ensure it’s merged into the object you pass to registerBlockType).
  • Mismatches between block.json and registerBlockType(...) (or a build output not updated) commonly lead to “why is context missing?”
  1. Ensure the provider is actually an ancestor
  • If your consumer block is inserted outside the provider block (even temporarily), context may be undefined / missing because nothing is providing that key.
  1. Code defensively in Edit
export default function Edit( { context = {} } ) {
  const recordId = context[ 'my-plugin/recordId' ];
  return <div>{ recordId ?? 'No context provided' }</div>;
}

(Per docs, only explicitly requested keys are made available, and only when provided.) (developer.wordpress.org)

🌐 Web query:

@wordpress/core-data useEntityProp undefined postType postId parameter

💡 Result:

useEntityProp does not take postType / postId as named parameters. Its signature is:

useEntityProp( kind, name, prop, id? )
  • kind: entity kind (for posts: 'postType')
  • name: the post type slug (e.g. 'post', 'page', 'product', or your CPT slug)
  • prop: the property to read/write (commonly 'meta')
  • id (optional): the specific record ID to use (e.g. postId) instead of the nearest “provided entity” context. [1][2]

So for post meta:

import { useEntityProp } from '@wordpress/core-data';

const [ meta, setMeta ] = useEntityProp('postType', postType, 'meta', postId);

If you pass the wrong thing in the 2nd argument (e.g. you pass 'postType' again, or a label instead of the slug), you’ll typically get undefined because that entity doesn’t exist. [2]

Also, meta will be undefined if the meta field isn’t exposed in REST (the meta key must be registered with show_in_rest: true for the relevant post type). [1]

Guard against missing block context before calling useEntityProp

The block declares usesContext in block.json, but context may be undefined when the block is inserted outside a context provider (e.g., in the inserter or template preview). Destructuring const { postId, postType } = context; will yield undefined values, causing useEntityProp to fail. The PHP render callback already handles this defensively; the Edit component should too.

currently destructures context and calls useEntityProp unguarded; if context is
undefined this breaks. Update the Edit component to first verify context and its
postId/postType (e.g., if (!context || !context.postId || !context.postType)
return a placeholder UI or set fieldValue to fallback), then only call
useEntityProp when postType and postId are present; adjust logic around
fieldValue/fallbackText accordingly so useEntityProp is never invoked with
undefined postType/postId (references: Edit, context, postId, postType,
useEntityProp, fieldValue).

Sanitize fieldKey using sanitize_key() to prevent exposure of protected meta

Block attributes are user input and must be sanitized before use. Apply sanitize_key() to $field_key at line 30 to ensure it conforms to valid meta key format. Additionally, consider checking is_protected_meta( $field_key ) to prevent editors from accessing private meta keys (those prefixed with underscores like _thumbnail_id).

Per coding guidelines, all user input must be sanitized immediately, and sensitive functionality requires capability verification.

Escape array items before emitting quoted lists.

Line 538–540 wraps items in single quotes without escaping. While schema validation currently restricts cpt_supports to safe enum values (e.g., "title", "editor"), defensive escaping is good practice for any potential future schema changes or other array fields. The proposed fix is correct:

Proposed fix
-		if (Array.isArray(value)) {
-			return value.map(item => `'${item}'`).join(', ');
-		}
+		if (Array.isArray(value)) {
+			return value
+				.map((item) => {
+					const escaped = String(item)
+						.replace(/\\/g, '\\\\')
+						.replace(/'/g, "\\'");
+					return `'${escaped}'`;
+				})
+				.join(', ');
+		}

In `@scripts/generate-plugin.js` around lines 532 - 541, The array-item quoting in
the result.replace callback (inside the Array.isArray(value) branch) currently
wraps items in single quotes without escaping; update that branch to first
convert each item to a string and escape backslashes and single quotes (e.g.,
replace \ with \\ and ' with \') before surrounding with single quotes so
emitted PHP string literals are safe; locate the replace callback that
references config[varName] and modify the Array.isArray(value) map
transformation to perform this escaping for each item.

Escape regex metacharacters before building RegExp patterns.

Lines 1014–1018 build RegExp instances from user-provided singular and plural strings which are not validated for regex metacharacters. Although slug is restricted by schema validation to ^[a-z][a-z0-9_]{0,18}[a-z0-9]$, singular and plural fields accept any characters up to 50 chars with no pattern validation. Special regex characters like ., *, +, ?, ^, $, {, }, (, ), [, ], \, and | will be interpreted as regex operators, causing incorrect replacements or failed matches.

For example, a post type with singular name "Tour (2024)" will create a capturing group in the regex pattern instead of matching the literal string, resulting in the replacement failing silently. A dot character like "Tour." will match any character (not just dots), causing unintended matches.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Normalise non-string meta values before rendering.

Arrays and objects from meta[fieldKey] can render poorly (or throw) in React; normalise them to a string for a stable editor preview.

In `@src/blocks/`{{block_slug}}-field-display/index.js around lines 79 - 100,
meta[fieldKey] may be an object/array and is used directly in rendering (via
fieldValue and displayValue), which can break React—coerce/normalize non-string
values to a string when computing fieldValue: read meta?.[fieldKey], if it's
null/undefined use fallbackText/(No value set), if it's a string use it,
otherwise convert objects/arrays/other types to a stable string (e.g.
JSON.stringify or String()) before using in displayValue; keep prefix/prefixBold
logic unchanged so displayValue renders only string content.
