Reply To: restrict/hide Gutenberg blocks by role

[WolfE1963]

Hi Vladimir, hi David,

I found a code that allow/disallow blocks for specific post types. Is it possible to change that code in a way that I can allow all blocks for admins and only specific blocks for the user roles?
I’m not a coder ;-), maybe something like If(!current_user_can(‘author’) array a,b,c …

That’s the code from https://rudrastyh.com/gutenberg/remove-default-blocks.html#remove_blocks

add_filter( 'allowed_block_types', 'misha_allowed_block_types', 10, 2 );
 
function misha_allowed_block_types( $allowed_blocks, $post ) {
 
	$allowed_blocks = array(
		'core/image',
		'core/paragraph',
		'core/heading',
		'core/list'
	);
 
	if( $post->post_type === 'page' ) {
		$allowed_blocks[] = 'core/shortcode';
	}
 
	return $allowed_blocks;
 
} 

Please stay safe
Wolfgang
