I have a good knowledge of PHP and am, meh, at JavaScript - enough to get along. I'd probably regard myself as a typical plugin developer, for those not making a living from them. I'm an enthusiast.\r\n\r\nOver the last couple of weeks I've been looking at what changes I can make to my plugins to prepare them for Gutenberg. As a result I have a number of queries which, it was suggested on the Slack channel, I bring here.\r\n\r\n1. For shortcodes that wrap around text (i.e. inline), what is the post-Gutenberg solution? A block isn’t suitable in this situation.\r\n2. Will Gutenberg work nicely with Shortcake (both projects have been posed this question but I can’t find a definitive answer). This would be a great solution for developers to add shortcode-based plugins into the GB environment without having to get involved with the step learning curve of block creation - i.e. if a shortcode-based plugin uses Shortcake (which is quite easy to integrate into) and then Shortcake deals with all of the block requirements of GB.\r\n3. Are there any plans for backwards compatibility of the Custom Fields meta-box? One of my plugins uses it and, come the launch of WordPress 5.0, it will no longer work as a result. \r\n4. Is there documentation available for adding to the editor sidebars and into the toolbar? The same for the block options in the sidebar as well."}}
