Sometimes, I find that after copying and pasting GB Blocks, when you edit the new iteration, it also updates the old one. I have learned that using Duplicate changes the GB containers to avoid this issue. For a site, if I build out unsynced patterns, can these be used without needing to go through the duplicate process? The idea is to avoid changing future iterations without affecting previously used instances.
Thoughts on the best to manage this?

Are you referring to the WP patterns?
If so, the unsynced pattern would still contain the same ID, so it would still affect blocks that have the same ID on the same page.

Hi Ying, I see. What is we build these inside GB’s Local Pattern using Global Styles. Would this prevent things from changing if newer instances were updated?
Add-On: Noticed you used “the same page”. If using the WordPress unsynced pattern, would the problem still happen if these were dropped into different pages?

This should work, unless you update the global style, otherwise, the inserted local patterns should not affect each other.

It should be fine theoretically, haven’t tested myself.
