I guess you’re right and it’d be better if we moved our nab folder inside wp-content/uploads (thus relying on WordPress’ wp_upload_dir helper function). Please let me look into this and I’ll get back to you ASAP. Also, send me an email at support at nelio software dot com. This way, I can send you a beta version to validate that it all works fine.

Fixed in version 8.4.0

I’m afraid that’s precisely the issue. Custom Post Type tests only work if the post type itself behaves like a regular WordPress page, meaning it has its own URL and what not. If the post type creates a block that’s then embedded elsewhere (like, for example, a page), this type of test will not work.

Here’s what I would do instead. If you want to test an alternative block in your homepage, create a page test and run it on the home page. Then edit your variant B and add the AI block in it. Does this sound feasible?

I guess the problem is you’re defining a function (archive_header) that already exists in the global scope, which triggers an error. Rename your alternative function to something else:

remove_action( 'woocommerce_before_shop_loop', 'archive_header' );
function archive_header_b_variant() {
  …
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_before_shop_loop', 'archive_header_b_variant' );

I’m not sure whether it would even be possible to create a test that changes the content of the custom field. I tried the custom post type test, but the custom fields are not available in the drop down.

Yeah, no, I don’t think that’d be possible with the current set of tests. You’ll have to create a PHP test whether you like it or not.

I think the only solution would be to create a PHP test that somehow looks something similar to this:

// Unhook original hero section:
remove_action('woocommerce_before_shop_loop', 'archive_header', 10);

// Create new hero section:
function archive_header_b() {
    if ( ! is_product_category() ) {
        return;
    }
    $cat = get_queried_object();

    // Load different field:
    $custom_field = get_field( 'product_category_header_b', $cat );

    echo '<div class="fullwidth-banner cat-banner">' . $custom_field . '</div>';
    do_action( 'woo_cat_rating', $cat );
    if (in_array($cat->slug, array('schimmelentferner', 'spruehgeraete'))) {
        echo '<p style="text-align: center;"><a class="button scroll-element" id="video" href="#produktvideo">Anwendungsvideo</a></p>';
    }
}
add_action('woocommerce_before_shop_loop', 'archive_header', 10);

and that’ll probably do the trick.

Thanks for the detailed report, @hannah3405.

I was unable to reproduce the issue locally but, thanks to your detailed explanation, I think I was able to address and fix it correctly. If you could please upgrade to version 8.3.1, validate it, and let me know how it goes, I’d really appreciate it.

Do you mean you’re not seeing variant B ever? Please contact us via email (support at nelio software dot com) and we’ll take a closer look at your setup.

Thanks, mate! That was really helpful. I was able to identify and understand what was causing the issue. I’ll work on the fix and publish it in our next release (8.2.3).
