Custom code is not showing in query when front end rendering is on

Bugs

Hi @Louis,
I have a query with a filter, so front-end rendering is a must. In the query, I wanted to display the post slug but I cannot see it under dynamic data. So, I achieved same by using a code block and custom code. However, the problem is that the my custom code works only when front-end rendering is turned off.

Hi @krievinshj,

Thanks for the report.

I’m sorry for the inconvenience you’re experiencing.

You are correct, custom code is currently not supported as we are still exploring different avenues available for a safe execution.
We hopefully will have a solution in the coming weeks, so please bear with us.

Cheers,

@krievinshj Do you came up with an alternative solution? I’m also facing this issue now as using custom built shortcodes in the query and nothing shows when front-end rendering is turned on.

In my particular case workaround was ACF field which I added and which shows fine with frontend rendering on.
Not sure if this might help in your case.

@lukelee, Just in case this is still needed or for anyone else who finds this thread, this can be achieved using the shortcode whitelist:

Also, you can use a Paragraph block (with any html tag. e.g. <div>) and use the dynamic inserter to insert a function.
