Hey @azhiya! Sarah is working on this and has shared the Google draft doc with the Training team.
Please review for https://github.com/WordPress/Documentation-Issue-Tracker/issues/283
Paused; the majority of this lesson plan is done in Google Docs, this just needs to be moved to Learn. If someone is interested in moving this across the finish line, please ping @arasae in the #training channel. Otherwise, I will get to this as my priorities allow.
That's great @wparasae. If you've got no takers, I can work on moving it across.
patterns with the Query Loop, which reflects the intended post type, and the tools panel has been adopted to better consolidate the number of filters shown by default. Finally, folks who extend the Query Loop can also use an allowedControls property to determine what filters appear in variations to refine the UI based on their unique variation.
Visuals: parent filter video, tools panel video.
Code examples: video exploring registering a variation and including specific patterns with JS for registering a Query Loop variation and PHP for registering a pattern can be used with the variation.
Adoption approach: opt-in.
Key Make Posts/GitHub/Trac Issue(s):
Pass extra query args in REST API call for an accurate preview for extenders. Add parents filter for querying pages. Add a filter to build_query_vars_from_query_block. UX: Add filters with ToolsPanel to better organize the experience of working with filter options. UX: Honor intended post type when previewing patterns and when replacing them with patterns for a more intuitive and predictable experience. Add allowedControls in block variations for better extensibility, which allows extenders to determine which controls show up for variations. Draft of documentation for extending the query loop through variations.
Due to a transition, I have removed myself from this issue to allow someone else to work on this. :) If I find time to work on this in the next two weeks, I will comment below and happily reassign myself to this issue.
WP 6.4 Visuals: YouTube video explaining improved pagination feature. Adoption approach: Key Make Posts/GitHub/Trac Issue(s): Query block: Client-side pagination (53812), make mid size parameter settable for Query Pagination block. (#51216), Query block: Start prefetching on first click to next/previous. (54781)
