How to Properly Use wp.element.createElement for Images in Gutenberg Block Registration

Creating custom blocks in WordPress using Gutenberg can be challenging, especially when you're working with specific HTML tags like images. One common issue developers encounter is embedding an image with wp.element.createElement. If you're struggling with this, you're not alone!

In this post, we’ll address a common pitfall when registering new blocks and how to correctly format the code to display an image.

The Problem: Attempt Recovery Error

When trying to create a basic image block using the wp.blocks.registerBlockType function, many developers find themselves facing an error, often encountering the "Attempt Recovery" message. This can be frustrating, especially when you're eager to see your custom block in action.

Breakdown of the Solution

Register Block Type:

Use wp.blocks.registerBlockType to define the new block.

Specify a unique block name (e.g., 'brad/border-box').

Define the Block Attributes:

Set attributes that your block will accept (like content and color).

Edit Function:

This function defines how the block appears in the editor. You can use various React components to structure the block UI.

Save Function:

This function outputs the final HTML when the block is saved. In your case, you're returning an image element.

Conclusion

By structuring your block registration correctly, you can easily utilize wp.element.createElement to display an image without running into errors. Always ensure to include the essential parameters in the wp.blocks.registerBlockType function to avoid any “Attempt Recovery” messages.

Feel free to experiment with the example code, and soon you’ll have customized image blocks in your WordPress environment!
