Block Grammar & Markup

<!-- wp:comment-content /-->

Ancestor

Optional. Type: Array.

A block with an ancestor can be placed as an inner block of the ancestor. Either as a direct child block of the ancestor, or nested.

That allows, for example, to place a ‘Comment Content’ block inside a ‘Column’ block, as long as ‘Column’ is somewhere within a ‘Comment Template’ block.

In comparison to the parent property blocks that specify their ancestor can be placed anywhere in the subtree whilst blocks with a specified parent need to be direct children.

Context

Context is used to pass values from a block to a descendant block; for example, a query and post template passing the query ID to the inner blocks.

Documentation
