Hello! Is there a simple way to insert a block into all posts?
Backstory: I have 400+ posts on my website. I just launched an ecommerce store, and would like to insert a block into every post. The block would feature a few products and let people know we have a store, and here are a few of our top sellers. I’d like it to show up around 30% through the article. Or we could do after 10 paragraphs, or whatever.
Is there an easy way to do that? Hooks, reusable block patterns, etc?
Thank you!

Hi there,
GP does not have a built-in hook in the content area, you will need to create a custom hook.
Check this solution, you need to change the number
6to10in the code, andsixthtotenth

after_tenth_paragraph. -
Forgive me, but could you explain what I’m supposed to do with that code? I assume I add it as a PHP function/snippet, right? After that I’m not clear on
1) how to create the hook, and
2) how to tell the hook to pull my reusable blockThanks!

1) how to create the hook, and
The hook is created by the code.
2) how to tell the hook to pull my reusable block
Add your content to a block element – hook at appearance > elements, and the hook name will be
after_tenth_paragraph. -
Excellent, thank you!

Sorry last question – If I wanted to insert another block after, say, paragraph 25, would I just repeat the entire process (and swap out “10” and “tenth” with 25/25th)? Thanks!

That’s correct, just make sure the 2 functions have different names, as every function name has to be unique.

Thank you!
