Blocks @defer breaks Server Side Rendering and Static Site Generation

[JeanMeche]

Hi, this is explicitly being stated in the docs:

When rendering an application on the server (either using SSR or SSG), defer blocks always render their @Placeholder (or nothing if a placeholder is not specified). Triggers are ignored on the server.

Note, this particular feature (rendering @defer blocks on the server) is being investigated for the next major version.

Hi. Thanks for the documentation, I've read the documentation several times, but only now I realized what this paragraph is about :)

So, do I understand correctly that this is normal behavior for @defer or will this be fine-tuned in future versions?

Note, this particular feature (rendering @defer blocks on the server) is being investigated for the next major version.

Then what is the correct way to proceed for the examples? What should the @Placeholder be filled with or @defer is inappropriate in this case?

This behavior is normal and expected with the implementation of the defer block we have in v17.

The gist you shared twice the same blocks, maybe if you update it I can give you a complete answer for your issue.

Oops... Sorry, I didn't realize.
Pieces of code fixed.

As the docs say, SSR/SSG will only render the @placeholder block in v17.

If you need SSG/SSR to render that block you will need to drop the @defer until this is supported.

Hmmm... Okay, well, thanks for your help.

Closing as work as intented for the moment.
