Description

This module allows you to use local phtml template file as fallback instead of cms content

Install

composer require ghostunicorns/module-cms-fallback

How to use

The specified fallback template will be rendered if block is missing.

In your cms block layout declaration, just add the extra argument fallback_template specifying the fallback template:

<block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="block-name">
    <arguments>
        <argument name="block_id"
                  xsi:type="string">block-identifier</argument>
        <argument name="fallback_template"
                  xsi:type="string">Vendor_Module::template.phtml</argument>
    </arguments>
</block>

How to import

You can transfer all the new file-based block template to Magento CMS Block by running:

bin/magento cms-fallback:import --storeview default

You can also add --force to override the existing blocks.
