FAQ

Does it work with custom post types?

Yes! As long as your CPT is registered with 'hierarchical' => true and 'show_in_rest' => true.

How is the “Auto” mode determined?

It finds the top-level ancestor of the current page/post and renders its subtree.

Can I style the active item?

Yes! Use the “Active item CSS class” field in the Advanced panel (defaults to active).

Why require WordPress 6.3+?

The block uses modern Gutenberg APIs (core-data, EntityPicker, ServerSideRender) that are stable from WP 6.3 onward.

Where is the developer version hosted?
