Is this possible?

    Hi,

    This seems like an amazing plugin.

    Using ACF I am used to doing the following:

    Upon Save/Publish of a CPT, I get the values of some custom fields (eg Address), run some PHP (eg Get latitude and longitude), and then write some values to some custom fields (eg write latitude and longitude to 2 custom fields) and those fields are only visible to admin.

    So I am curious if Lazy Blocks can do this.

    Could you please address each step?

    1) Run code eg in plugin or template upon saving an entry of a CPT/page/post

    2) Get values programmatically from eg paragraph blocks

    3) Write values programmatically into eg paragraph blocks

    4) Make certain blocks only be visible to admin role, not other roles eg Author.

    Thanks ahead of time…..

    Hey.

    I don’t think this is directly related to our plugin. You will need to manually parse the post content and find blocks, from which data you need to use. Maybe this one could help – https://www.billerickson.net/access-gutenberg-block-data/

    Restricting blocks access by the user role is not possible with our plugin.
