I am trying to use Gutenberg to edit content-templates, and in my content template I have some conditional display.

Now I would like to be able to wrap one or more Gutenberg blocks into that conditional display.

How can you achieve this in Gutenberg (or the block editor as its named now)

Hi, we're working on some updates that will expand the Toolset integration in the block editor, but for now it's not really easy to add conditional display at the block level. In very simple cases you can use a shortcode block to insert the wpv-conditional using your own code, but it's not well integrated into the GUI and in complex cases it will break down fairly quickly. At this time it's best to use the traditional Content Template editor to implement conditional HTML.
