    Hi

    I am trying to output a block using do_blocks($blockcontent) https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/do_blocks/
    and the output does not include the innerHTML content, do you know why this is? I ask as the core blocks successfully output the innerHTML.

    Thanks

    e.g. of $blockcontent
    <!-- wp:meta-box/dc-favourite-button-block {"id":"mb-block-0634ff4f-9fee-4024-a2b6-6c29dd19e46b","data":{"button_text":"\u0026#x2764;","button_text_colour":"#1e73be","button_text_colour_active":"#8224e3","favourite_type":"product","favourite_database_check":1,"default_favourite_value":0}} /-->

    Hello,

    What do you mean the innerHTML content in your case? It depends on the template that you use to output the custom block on your site. Or do you mean the inner blocks? I see the function do_blocks() also renders the inner blocks as well.

    So take the following block html block code and output the html. 

    <!-- wp:meta-box/dc-favourite-button-block {"id":"mb-block-0634ff4f-9fee-4024-a2b6-6c29dd19e46b","data":{"button_text":"\u0026#x2764;","button_text_colour":"#1e73be","button_text_colour_active":"#8224e3","favourite_type":"product","favourite_database_check":1,"default_favourite_value":0}} /-->

    Hello,

    Can you please share a screenshot or the code that you use to render the block? Here is an example on my demo site:

    $content = '<!-- wp:meta-box/block-meta {"id":"mb-block-013da68d-63fa-4783-be27-126100bac665","data":{"first_name1":"Meta Box"}} -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">This is the heading text</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- /wp:meta-box/block-meta -->';

echo do_blocks( $content );

    Code to render the block https://monosnap.com/file/N8eBWEtGhkpcvya5Ot8Sv28GfOxnWA
    what it displays on the frontend https://monosnap.com/file/zcEfNCjiRuqIMZGAhjk7sD3c5m79Fr

    Hi,

    thanks for the example, i have resolved my issue, it turns out there was nothing wrong with the code, i was running it too early inside my custom plugin, this returned a empty value, my bad.

    sorry to have wasted your time.
