    I want to remove/delete a block I added in the Editor programmatically (the same thing that happens when I click on the dots-menu and select “remove block” or press shift+alt+z). I don’t ask here how to remove blocks from the list of available blocks.
    Since I have the clientid and can change all kinds of different stuff there should be a way to remove it but I can’t find anything towards that.

  • Hello,
    Please try to this code in your functions.php file.

    // disable for posts
    add_filter(‘use_block_editor_for_post’, ‘__return_false’, 10);

    // disable for post types
    add_filter(‘use_block_editor_for_post_type’, ‘__return_false’, 10);

    Okay but why? This seems kinda off topic.
    But I solved this on my own. What I was looking for was the removeBlocks(clientid) function
