Description

Very much a work in progress, but this issue's goal is to add support for all existing bbPress shortcodes as blocks in the block editor.

#1 @georgestephanis

Very coarse first pass -- at this point the main question is more of tooling around the blocks to be added.

I'd added a npm run blocks to build them via parcel, but if y'all would prefer to tweak that to integrate with y'all's grunt tooling, that's fine. This is just the way I knew to set up the transpiling with as little friction as possible.

More to come as I continue fleshing out the other shortcodes.

Just as this is going to be an ongoing thing, I'm working on this over at ​https://github.com/bbpress/bbPress/pull/4 -- which will update as I continue.

I was just going to request this feature. The widgets will also need to be updated to blocks. Is this project dead?

Is this project dead?

No. New features are worked on by a smaller team of contributors than WordPress has. As such, progress is slower.

Yup! Confirming that I'm still working on it, but most of the work is in GitHub. And when I sit down to work on it I keep getting yanked away by other issues. But it's in progress, and if you'd like to pitch in with it, please let me know! I'd be delighted to collab. :)

@georgestephanis

I would love to pitch in. Just to let you know, I have never made a WordPress plugin before in my life. What can I do to help?

Branch restored. PR re-opened. This was accidental.
This PR doesn't need to be rebased to trunk, that'll be done by the committer.
