What?

Fixes #15486.

This PR enables the quote block to use inner blocks, meaning that it can have any block within beyond the paragraph.

Why?

Allowing users to add any kind of content to quote is a much requested feature that we've been tracking at #15486

We've tried this before #6520 but the interaction wasn't a great model for this block at the time.

How

We've made the block support inner blocks without any other changes (no changes to markup, etc).

Note this PR has gone through multiple iterations and multiple people have contributed to it. The last push was to merge it in small PRs behind a flag so it didn't interfere with the existing quote block until we were ready to enable the v2 version:

This is a comparison of the keyboard interactions between v1 and v2:

ID Use case quote v1 quote v2 group
1 Start writing after inserting the block Yes Yes No
2 Hit ENTER in an empty content line: it moves the focus out of the block if it's the last Yes Yes No
3 Hit ENTER in an empty content line: it splits the block if it's in the middle Yes Yes No
4 Go to cite after adding content Yes (ARROW DOWN) No -
5 Hit ENTER or ARROW DOWN at the end of the cite moves the focus out of the block Yes Yes -
6 Navigate out of the block (forward) Yes (ARROW DOWN) With cite: ARROW DOWN. Without cite: ARROW DOWN + ENTER when block is selected Yes (ARROW DOWN)
7 Navigate out of the block (backward) Yes (ARROW UP) Yes (ARROW UP) Yes (ARROW UP)
8 Navigate into the block (forward/backward) Yes (ARROW UP/DOWN) Yes (ARROW UP/DOWN) Yes (ARROW UP/DOWN)

Testing

  • Go to the editor and add a quote block normally.
  • Test that interactions work as before:
    • Can start typing right away after inserting the block.
    • Can start typing right awary after inserting the prefix transform (type > ).
    • Transform to/from pullquote.
  • Test that you can use inner blocks.

I'm using this snippet for testing block deprecations:

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Quote with single paragraph and cite:</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:quote -->
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Single paragraph.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph --><cite>Some cite.</cite></blockquote>
<!-- /wp:quote -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Quote with multiple paragraph and cite:</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:quote -->
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>First paragraph.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Second paragraph.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph --><cite>Some cite.</cite></blockquote>
<!-- /wp:quote -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Quote without cite:</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:quote -->
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Single paragraph.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph --></blockquote>
<!-- /wp:quote -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Quote without content:</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:quote -->
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><cite>Some cite.</cite></blockquote>
<!-- /wp:quote -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Quote with single paragraph and cite (style large):</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:quote {"className":"is-style-large"} -->
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-style-large"><!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Single paragraph.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph --><cite>Some cite.</cite></blockquote>
<!-- /wp:quote -->

To do:

You'll also need to adjust the raw transform (paste) to parse as inner blocks instead.

Do we need to add style rules for the allowed inner blocks? The existing large style only has rules for p.

I think we need to.

You'll also need to adjust the raw transform (paste) to parse as inner blocks instead.

You should also check the other transforms as well. Example heading to quote etc..

Keep in mind that we should probably not be adding styles to the Quote block that specifically target other blocks via CSS classes, but rather target the underlying HTML tags. Remember that plugins can add their own heading, paragraph, and other textual content blocks. A selector for pre will be more plugin-friendly than .wp-block-preformatted.

At current this PR looks like this:
Nested-blocks-Quote-Block

This looks good! It is very helpful having nested blocks!
I believe the PR is undergoing changes based on feedback in the issue.

Ps. I just want to mention another block that could also used nested blocks. The List block: #6394

Hey @nosolosw! 👋

Just tested this PR and it's looking really good!

@ellatrix et all, have we considered which blocks will be allowed inside the Quote block?

@oandregal

@enriquesanchez the allowed blocks are the ones suggested here: paragraph, headings, list, code. My understanding is that we want cite to have a stable place within the quote and be always shown, so it's not a block but a field of the blockquote.

A very common use case will be to cite content that includes images, so I'd suggest including those in the allowed list.

What's the primary motivator for limiting content? The quote element itself allows a wide range of flow content. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/HTML/Content_categories#Flow_content

This test is failing because after ArrowRight you can't type a cite. See #25892. We need to either fix this keyboard interaction or adapt the test.

Can we move the cite to be a button in the Quote toolbar, which once you click adds and focuses the cite? If the cite is left empty, when the block is unselected, or another block is focused within the block, the cite element should disappear (no placeholder). I think that'd help with the "Go to cite after adding content" so we can push this through.

I've marked this as "needs dev note" for authors to be aware of the changes. I haven't done a before/after review of the markup (it should be the same in principle) but a couple of things that stand out to highlight are:

  • Quote can have more HTML than paragraphs, and themes may want to account for that
  • Content within the quote can have a new attribute [data-block] in the editor (not in the front). So, if a theme uses that attribute to detect blocks and assign some behaviour (for example, a "gap" such as TwentyTwentyOne does) this can affect the block. See related List v2: default blocks styles (margin) applied to list items #42526
