Storing Data with Blocks

What you’ll learn in this section

This section focuses on data storage in blocks through the attribute system. Attributes define what data blocks can handle and store user input like text content, alignment settings, and other block-specific configuration.

Understanding attributes is crucial for both data persistence and creating proper editing experiences. They bridge the gap between user interface components and actual data storage in WordPress.

You’ll learn how attributes work conceptually and implement them practically, connecting the RichText component to proper data handling for a fully functional block.
