Methods
- __construct— Constructor.
- get_attributes— Get all available block attributes including possible layout attribute from Columns block.
- is_dynamic— Returns true if the block type is dynamic, or false otherwise. A dynamic block is one which defers its rendering to occur on-demand at runtime.
- prepare_attributes_for_render— Validates attributes against the current block schema, populating defaulted and missing values.
- render— Renders the block type output for given attributes.
- set_props— Sets block type properties.
