Hello, I would like to ask you a few questions about Block Element – Content Template.
1. Can I use Dynamic Content (block element) purely with GeneratePress PRO without GenerateBlocks? In other words, does this feature work independently of GenerateBlocks?

2. I am now trying to create everything in REM units. Is it a good idea to insert Dynamic Content into a container for which I set the Max Width to 50 rem (800px)? Or is it better to choose PX?

3. Is there anything I should avoid when creating a Content template?
4. Why did my hooks stop working after the new Content Template was released? For example, after_entry_content no longer displays content.
Thank you very much.

Hi there.
1. The dynamic content block block is part of GeneratePress Premium plugin and can be used without GenerateBlocks (or Pro)
2. Yes, using REM for the max-width is valid.
3. Just make sure, you assign it to the proper place in the Display Rules. For example, to make a single post content template, the template’s location should be set to Post->All Posts.
4. When you create a Content Template in GeneratePress Elements, it fundamentally changes how the content area is rendered, which affects how hooks work. Try using the
after_main_contenthook to inject content after the main post content. -
Hello, I have one more question about Content Template.
Does it only work flawlessly with GenerateBlocks?
Why am I asking?
I created a HERO section using the GreenShift plugin. I noticed that all generated <style> tags are rendered directly in the HTML body (near the blocks) instead of being placed in the <head> section.
When I insert this section into a normal page, everything works fine. The problem only occurs when using the Content template.
Question
If I want everything to work flawlessly, do I have to use GenerateBlocks, or can the problem in GreenShift be solved somehow?

A content template is functionality of GeneratePress premium plugin, so need for GenerateBlocks. GenerateBlocks is recommended as a block solution for site building but you can use any other block plugin or just use core Gutenberg.
I am not familiar with the GreenShift plugin so I am not sure how this was constructed. You can use GenerateBlocks to construct the hero section inside a GeneratePress element with Page Hero as content type, then set conditions on where this hero would appear.
A content template is a different element type. We usually use these for Single Posts / Singular templates ( this also includes things like 404 and No Results pages )
