Pull request overview
Adds opt-in “auto register” behavior to the block registrar so blocks can be registered directly from args (without requiring an explicit block_type reference), aligning with the referenced WordPress “PHP-only block registration” direction.
Changes:
- Iterates configured blocks with their array keys as
$blockName. - Adds an
autoRegisterflag check undersupportsto decide whether to register by name ({$namespace}/{$blockName}). - Introduces a small helper (
shouldAutoRegister) to encapsulate the flag detection.
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.
