 * Hi there,
 * The substitution works fine on our WP 5.03 system in pages. In “Blocks” the substitution
   is not working, it just displays as is. Why aren’t block substitutions working?

 * Hi [@erikdj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/erikdj/)
 * I assume that by substitutions you mean shortcodes, and by blocks you mean Gutenberg
   editor blocks, right? Blocks render differently, we have some plans to support
   it in v2 but not immediately.

 * Correct on both

 * Let me confirm what are the plans for v2. I believe blocks are meant to be supported
   explicitly but then, again, we’ll be moving away from the shortcodes to [twig](https://docs.alexacrm.com/wpcrm/twig/)
   so I’m not 100% sure how’s that going to work. (Well, technically twig is wrapped
   up in a shortcode as well but that’s only one to remember and that’s going to
   be a block, I believe).

 * Hi [@erikdj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/erikdj/)
 * I was able to use `[msdyncrm_twig]` in a “Custom HTML” block. That is probably
   the most appropriate block to use with V1 shortcodes.
 * Thanks
