preview template displays; block template does not
-
Genesis Custom Blocks is not reading my /blocks/example-block/block.php or /blocks/block-example-block.php files.
It will read /blocks/example-block/preview.php or /blocks/preview-example-block.php files.
This is just publishing the Example Block that comes with Genesis Custom Blocks.
I can view all the fields with preview.php, but it won’t render on the front.
I have the same content in each file:<div class="example-block"> <p> Example Block has <?php block_field( 'button-text' ); ?> </p> </div>(There is more template than this; I just stripped it down, as it wasn’t working.)
I have another block with a loop in the template that will preview perfectly, but won’t display on the front-end.

Hi @amethystwd,
Thanks for bringing this up.1. To confirm, is the
block-example-block.phpfile at this path?path/to/wp-content/themes/navigation-pro/blocks/block-example-block.phpIn my local, that template displays on the front-end as expected with the Navigation Pro theme, even when there is also a
blocks/preview-example-block.phpfile:https://cldup.com/jUN9EFBcPz.png
2. Would you be able to try deactivating all plugins except GCB?
Thanks!
Thank you for your help.
It works now with this file and path (there may have been caching issues earlier):
path/to/wp-content/themes/navigation-pro/blocks/block-example-block.phpIt also looks like it works with this path now
path/to/wp-content/themes/navigation-pro/blocks/example-block/block.php
per this documentation
