I suspect another patch providing this part of the solution. For now I will go back to my solution of a custom argument plugin to pass in the "parent id". This does work but at the moment only grabs the first block of this type as I can't find the answer to my original question - "how to get a list of the blocks placed on a node?". | |
| May 13, 2022 at 1:08 | comment | added | liquidcms | oddly enough i did that exact same case sensitive search across entire site and came up with nothing. But a little digging and guessing you have this patch in place: drupal.org/node/2799479. The one from #163 as I have the one from #158 which had not yet added this relationship. Thanks for the help. | |

@liquidcms A quick search for "By id" (match case and words) in the code reveals that this feature is from entity_reference_revisions, a dependency of paragraphs, which you should already have.

@liquidcms I just checked, the relationship is named like "By id: Custom block using <paragraphfieldmachinenameonblock>". When you add the contextual filter, the field to filter is "Custom block ID". Then one minor detail I missed, when you configure the contextual filter, you check "Specify validation criteria", with validator set as "Block", and Single ID as argument. I think this last bit is what finally made the selection appear for me the last time I did this. And this was available since 9.1 without patches.

| May 12, 2022 at 18:33 | comment | added | liquidcms | I'll try setting this up on a vanilla D9 site. Perhaps you have patches, or i do not have latest (I am on D9.2) or patches i do have are interfering. | |
| May 12, 2022 at 18:31 | comment | added | liquidcms | awesome but perhaps patches required? Your description of what i have is correct. There is no relationship for "block entity type". I have relationship to the content using the fields added to that type. Using one of those i have arg for "Custom block ID". After placing block i have contextual links for "control visibility" (patch), manage attrs (styling) and configure. In configure i see only title and override title . I can also enable to ask for args in the View under block settings; but this only takes a static id in layout. | |
