Cuplikan: Cara menambahkan blok khusus ke menu navigasi

In WordPress, the Navigation block restricts the types of blocks that can be added by default. However, there may be cases where you need to include custom blocks or additional Core blocks within navigation menus. For example, you might have to build a custom block for specific functionality, such as a mega menu or a block that displays a shopping cart on an eCommerce site. The use cases are numerous.
In this post you will learn how to add unsupported blocks to the Navigation block. This process requires JavaScript. The first step is to enqueue a JavaScript file using the `enqueue_block_editor_assets` hook. This ensures that your script is correctly loaded in the Editor.

add_action( 'enqueue_block_editor_assets', function() {
    wp_enqueue_script(
        'example-add-block-to-navigation-editor-script',
        plugins_url( 'js/editor-script.js', __FILE__ ),
        array( 'wp-hooks', 'wp-blocks' ), // Dependencies for block filters.
        '1.0.0',
        true
    );
} );

If you are following this example step-by-step, start by creating a file named `editor-script.js`. Place this file inside a `js` folder in your plugin’s root directory. Then, add the following code:

const addToNavigation = ( blockSettings, blockName ) => {
    if ( blockName === 'core/navigation' ) {
        return {
            ...blockSettings,
            allowedBlocks: [
                ...( blockSettings.allowedBlocks ?? [] ),
                'core/image',
                // example/custom-block
            ],
        };
    }
    return blockSettings;
};

wp.hooks.addFilter(
    'blocks.registerBlockType',
    'example-add-block-to-navigation',
    addToNavigation
);

This code uses the `blocks.registerBlockType` filter to extend the `allowedBlocks` property of the `core/navigation` block. For the purposes of this snippet, the code adds the `core/image` block to the Navigation block. Replace this with the name of the block you wish to add.
