What?

Adds support for the content insertion behavior introduced in #71232 for templateLock: contentOnly blocks.

Why?

Brings some parity, also this is good to merge early in the 7.0 cycle to gather feedback from plugin users.

How?

  • Adjusts the canInsertBlockType, canMoveBlockType and canRemoveBlockType selectors. These selectors all had clauses that would early return false when any type of templateLock is in place. That condition is loosened to allow contentOnly templateLock to fall through to the condition added in Allow adding "content" role blocks to containers that also have a "content" role in write mode #71232
  • Adjusts the isSectionBlock selector. This one is probably a bug that hadn't been spotted yet. templateLock cascades down the hierarchy and is applied to all parent blocks. Because of this we don't want every templateLocked block to be considered a section, only top-level templateLocked block in the hierarchy. The reason this is needed is that without it, List Items and Nav Links were being considered 'sections' when in a templateLocked hierarchy, and that prevented a lot of the toolbar from being available.
  • Adjusts appender logic to allow visibility of the appender when something is contentOnly templateLocked

Testing Instructions

  1. Here's some markup for a templateLocked group that you can insert:
<!-- wp:group {"templateLock":"contentOnly","align":"full","style":{"spacing":{"padding":{"top":"var:preset|spacing|30","bottom":"var:preset|spacing|30","left":"var:preset|spacing|30","right":"var:preset|spacing|30"}}},"backgroundColor":"accent-1","layout":{"type":"constrained"}} -->
<div class="wp-block-group alignfull has-accent-1-background-color has-background" style="padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)"><!-- wp:navigation {"ref":4} /-->

<!-- wp:list -->
<ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>test<!-- wp:list -->
<ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>test</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->

<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>test</li>
<!-- /wp:list-item --></ul>
<!-- /wp:list --></li>
<!-- /wp:list-item --></ul>
<!-- /wp:list -->

<!-- wp:social-links -->
<ul class="wp-block-social-links"><!-- wp:social-link {"service":"amazon"} /--></ul>
<!-- /wp:social-links -->

<!-- wp:buttons -->
<div class="wp-block-buttons"><!-- wp:button -->
<div class="wp-block-button"><a class="wp-block-button__link wp-element-button">test</a></div>
<!-- /wp:button --></div>
<!-- /wp:buttons --></div>
<!-- /wp:group -->
  1. Check that you can add/remove nav links, list items and buttons.

This PR may have allowed unintended block insertion.

For example, in the Accordion block, the children of the Accordion Item block consist only of the Accordion Heading and Accordion Panel blocks, and no other blocks can be inserted. However, applying templateLock:contentOnly allows the insertion of additional blocks.

<!-- wp:group {"templateLock":"contentOnly","layout":{"type":"constrained"}} -->
<div class="wp-block-group">
	<!-- wp:accordion -->
	<div role="group" class="wp-block-accordion">
		<!-- wp:accordion-item -->
		<div class="wp-block-accordion-item">
			<!-- wp:accordion-heading -->
			<h3 class="wp-block-accordion-heading">
				<button class="wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle"><span class="wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title">Accordion Title</span><span class="wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon" aria-hidden="true">+</span></button>
			</h3>
			<!-- /wp:accordion-heading -->
			<!-- wp:accordion-panel  -->
				<div role="region" class="wp-block-accordion-panel">
				<!-- wp:paragraph -->
				<p>Accordion Content</p>
				<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
			</div>
			<!-- /wp:accordion-panel -->
			</div>
		<!-- /wp:accordion-item -->
	</div>
	<!-- /wp:accordion -->
</div>
<!-- /wp:group -->

@t-hamano I'll have a look at putting a fix together. From what I can tell it's not a bug caused by this PR, I think it might be existing bug that this PR has exposed.

To explain - it looks like setting contentOnly on the group is also changing the 'Accordion Item' templateLock to contentOnly even though it's been explicitly set to all. I don't think it should override a templateLock that's already been set. 🤔

It's curious, it might be a bug that's been in trunk for a while, or maybe it's how it's expected to work, but that would be surprising to me. Other templateLock options like insert don't override the existing template lock.

Actually it is in the docs for contentOnly - "Unlike the other lock types, this is not overridable by children."

I guess it's not a bug, but it means there's no way to properly lock accordion-item down if a parent sets contentOnly mode.

TBH, these blocks are very complicated for contentOnly mode. In contentOnly there should be a flatter-hierarchy that's easier to edit, so it's unexpected to have three levels. I'm not sure what the answer is though, and I can absolutely see why it was built that way. I think ideally there'd be a way to make the header and panel more built into the item (Explore a concept for composite blocks (a container block with a fixed set of inner blocks, with some UX tweaking) is related).

It looks like another related bug with the accordion block and locking:

  1. Add an accordion within a group
  2. Open up the lock options for the group
  3. Select 'Lock all' and 'Apply to all blocks inside'

Expected: all inner blocks are locked
Actual: Users can still add inner blocks to Accordion Panel (because that block explicitly sets templateLock: false)

I think the root of the problem is the way Accordion is using templateLock isn't what it's intended for. A solution is needed for #70994.
