A WordPress 'Feedback' block that uses the Interactivity API to submit feedback on single posts.

Feedback block

Fork it, or download the latest release, and make it your own!

This is an example block that utilizes the upcoming public Interactivity API that will be a part of the WordPress 6.5 release (March 26, 2024). Check out the original Make announcement for the full details.

Description

This block provides a simple form for users to submit a sentiment about a post: 'Love it', 'It is okay', 'Not great', 'Hate it'. The can also submit some feedback with their chosen sentiment.

Note

You must have WordPress 6.5 Release Candidate running on your site. You can use the WordPress Beta Tester plugin and Local to spin up a quick testing site on your own computer.

Installation

1. Download the .zip release from this repo's Releases.
2. Un-zip and add it to your WordPress site.
3. Activate it.

The plugin uses Block Hooks to attach the Feedback block to a single post template's core/post-terms. A good way to test this is having the Twenty Twenty Four theme active, or a block theme that you're certain has the core/post-terms block on each individual post.

ToDo

• Thorough accessibility testing - right now the markup was quick and fast. However, focus, tabbing and overall experience needs attention.
• Clean up CSS - again, I was moving fast and likely that we can scope things better and even load in different contexts: front end, back end, etc.
• Render something better in the site editor. Right now, the focus was on the final front end rendering (render.php), and little attention was paid to the block's edit.js.

Changelog
