I want to make some blocks with no fields, so the data is hard coded. I'll return it with the callback
The problem is that if I don't have at least one field with data, the attributes aren't populated and in the admin it says something like "not rendered" and on the front end I get nothing.
Ok, I figured out how to render it, but I can still click the pencil and see nothing. Can I put in a placeholder there that says "You can't edit this block" ?
There isn't an option to add the placeholder to the pencil icon. I think you can set the block position to the sidebar, the block settings will display in the sidebar without the pencil icon.
That is expected when there is no content to render, the text "Block rendered as empty." will be displayed. You should add some static content to the block template to replace the text.
