Hi, I’ve done some quick testing with a vanilla block plugin generated by Pinegrow in the latest WordPress release candidate (version 6.4). I wanted to check if it would work, but for my surprise, it simply doesn’t show up in the block inserter. Only an error message appears: > “Your site doesn’t include support for the “pinegrow-block/pinegrow-block” block. You can leave this block intact or remove it entirely.” [Here’s a video with the test](https://ubr.link/uploads/Screen-Recording-2023-10-20-17-07-30/Screen-Recording-2023-10-20-17-07-30.mp4). The issue is that `pg-blocks-controls.js` uses `lodash`, but WordPress [now removes it](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/52571). I could make the block appear by adding `lodash` as a dependency in the `wp_register_script` function for the `pg-blocks-controls.js` file in `wp_pg_blocks_helpers.php`. But probably this isn’t a proper solution, according [to this comment](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/52571#issuecomment-1634317618) from the Gutenberg repo. ```auto wp_register_script('pg-blocks-controls', $base_url . 'blocks/pg-blocks-controls.js', array('wp-blocks', 'wp-block-editor', 'wp-server-side-render', 'wp-media-utils', 'wp-data', 'wp-element', 'lodash'), $reg_args['version']); ``` I thought you would like to know. WP 6.4 is coming next November, so there’s time for a fix. ---

@marc_io thanks for the report! We’ll publish an update for this next week. ---

@marc_io, you are a true hero! I’m not happy about the way WP is quietly deprecating things and I’m definitely not happy about having to re-export all my projects but I’m thankful that you found this and brought it to Pinegrow’s attention. ---

@adamslowe Thanks, we’re all in the same boat here. It’s been a lot of work to keep up with these constant changes, it’s almost a full time job, really. Let’s hope things start to settle a bit more, and kudos for the Pinegrow team to stay in this unstable game. ---

@marc_io @adamslowe we will have two ways to fix this: 1. By re-exporting projects with the next release of Pinegrow 2. By installing a simple WordPress plugin that will insure older blocks are compatible with WordPress 6.4. The plugin is available now, please try it if you can: [Release 1.0.0 · Pinegrow/LoadLodashForPinegrowBlocks · GitHub](https://github.com/Pinegrow/LoadLodashForPinegrowBlocks/releases/tag/1.0.0) The plugin adds lodash as a dependency for the pg-blocks-controls script. The option 2 is easy and quick, and gives you time to reexport existing projects without hurry. Options 1 and 2 can be used together on a single site. ---

Thanks for providing the plugin solution so quickly, @matjaz. I’ve tested it with WordPress version 4.6-RC2, and it works fine.
