FormTokenField cannot have identical names in value.
Describe the issue your running into with your code
Description of the "Post Picker" block concept
The purpose of the "Post Picker" block is to replicate the "Relationship" Field Type of the ACF Pro plug-in.
Currently I have developed the ability to select records of a given post type by title using the "FormTokenField" component.
The elements in the suggestion list of the "FormTokenField" component must be unique. Unfortunately, sometimes a website may contain entries with identical titles and then the suggestion and value list of the "FormTokenField" component will not work. I have created a workaround for this limitation: https://github.com/whatever-for-ever/wordpress-development/blob/341889b1a5e7218907f3ce58419bbf76b109b42a/wp-content/plugins/an-whatever/_src/blocks/post-picker/edit.js#LL87C6-L118C8
Given this limitation, it is necessary to see if the "FormTokenField" component is a suitable choice for the "Post Picker" block.
In order to make the "Post Picker" block fully functional, help is needed for the following tasks:
- [ ] create a taxonomy selection filter
- [ ] create a record type selection filter
- [ ] create the ability to reorder the selected records (this is a very high priority task)
- [ ] according to the previous tasks, we need to see if it is possible to achieve this functionality using the 'FormTokenField' component. If it is not possible, an alternative must be found
Examples
ACF Pro "Relationship" Field Type
Current implementation achieved
Desired result
If the above tasks could be achieved, the ACF Pro plugin would no longer be needed in many places. I hope that with your help we can achieve the desired result.
Notice. I have edited this Issue because I have cleaned up the problem. Do apologize for the text errors as my English is not as good as I wish
