 * Hi,
 * I am playing around with the plugin on the block based theme, but blocks are 
   not recognized. It still works in the pages, but when I want to use generateblocks
   in site editor (to create template) it doesn’t work. What am I missing here? 
   Do I need to register generateblocks in order to use them in site editor?
 * Thanks

 * Hi there,
 * Just to confirm, is this using full site editing?
 * If so, it’s likely that blocks need to specifically declare support. As things
   become more stable and closer to actual release, we will absolutely make sure
   that our blocks are compatible.

 * Hi [@edge22](https://wordpress.org/support/users/edge22/),
 * yes, it’s about full site editing. I plan to use generateblocks for creating 
   templates, since core blocks are still much limited when it comes to customization.
 * Sorry, I was jumping little ahead of time with this. I am sure they will work
   fine when full site editing comes. 🙂
 * Thanks for the answer and keep up the good work.

 * No problem! We will definitely be integrating it as soon as things are more stable.
 * Also, not sure what theme you’re using, but our GeneratePress Premium theme (
   beta version) allows you to use GenerateBlocks to build your content templates:
