  1. Bloqs

FAQs

Does Bloqs support ExpressionEngine's conditional fields?

No it does not, and probably never will. You can already create multiple bloqs with different atom/field variations, so adding conditionals fields into a bloq further complicates things (UI and code wise) for little gain. If ExpressionEngine does gain the ability to use conditional fields in complex custom field types we'll reevaluate the possibility.

Does Bloqs work with ExpressionEngine's database Find and Replace feature?

No it does not, but you can use the following queries as a guide to perform a find and replace on any Bloqs data.

# Replace content across all Bloqs content
UPDATE exp_blocks_atom SET `data`=(replace(`data`, 'old_value','new_value'));

# Replace content in a specific Atom
UPDATE exp_blocks_atom SET `data`=(replace (`data`, 'old_value','new_value')) where atomdefinition_id = "##";

I added a new atom to a bloq but existing entries don't reflect the change.

If you have entries using a bloq, then you update the atoms in that bloq, the existing instances of that bloq in entries might not reflect the addition or removal of the atom. This is easily fixed. Save the entry again (you don't need to make any changes to it, just click Save), and when the entry reloads it should display the modifications to the bloq that you made changes to.

Does Bloqs work with Fluid?

No, Bloqs and Fluid are similar in their capabilities, but a Bloqs field can not be placed inside of a Fluid field.
