[Resolved] Gutenberg Editor Integration for fields

I created a taxonomy called "Location"

I created a Term field called "Country Details" - this is a WYSIWYG field

I use a shortcode in functions.php to insert the term field country details in the backend of my location archives where I enter the appropriate text for the Location.

Here is the front end of my Location archive - hidden link

As you can see the contents of the Country Details WYSIWYG field displays below the gallery.

My Question:

Is there a way to make the WYSIWYG into a WordPress Gutenberg editor? I really need the Gutenberg functionality to make the text on the location archive pages consistent with the other content on my site.

NOTE: I am using Elementor for most of the site - in case that makes it any easier.
Also - if there is a more elegant way to accomplish all of this let me know - I see you have a new block editor which I have not had a chance to play around with yet.

Thanks

PS - here is the code you gave me for my functions.php file

/**
* Adds shortcode for Toolset Locations Archive backend
*/

add_shortcode( 'taxonomy', function( $atts ){

global $wp_query;
$tax = $wp_query->get_queried_object();

if ( isset( $atts['field'] ) ) {
$content = get_term_meta( $tax->term_id, $atts['field'], true );
} else {
$content = "";
}

return $content;
});

Hi Chris

There isn't such an option, I'm afraid.

The intention of the Toolset Blocks plugin (currently only in beta) is aimed at making a page builder redundant as you will be able to design the site entirely with Gutenberg, but there is currently no such facility to design an individual field with the Blocks editor.

You are not the first to ask about it, though, and it would help pushing for such a field if you submitted a request at https://toolset.com/home/contact-us/suggest-a-new-feature-for-toolset/.

To be clear, you would be asking for an equivalent to the WYSIWYG field that you can enter content using the Blocks editor instead of the TinyMCE editor.
