This block allows you to add an additional block content area to a site-editor template and store the block output inside a meta field. By default, the plugin will add a new meta field called
extra_content_area
for all post types which you can use to store the block markup.
If you want to disable this meta key's registration, add the following to your theme or plugin:
`
<?php
add_filter( 'content_area_block_register_default_meta', '__return_false' );
`
Note: Using this plugin requires you to enable template previews (which will let you visually see the new content area you're adding). This can be enabled on any given post or page, but you can optionally set it on by default using a filter.
