Here's a PR that fixes this issue: https://github.com/Automattic/gutenberg-ramp/pull/68
It seems to me that the priority 20 wasn't an accident, but rather added deliberately, so I think it'd be best not to tamper with the priority
The Gutenberg plugin meta box trick comment says that it's trying to register as late as possible, but it's not clear to me whether plugins_loaded, priority = 10
is as late as possible or whether the priority wasn't considered. If the priority wasn't considered - we could patch this either directly in Gutenberg or by removing and re-adding that function on a later stage of plugins_init
, like priority 1000.
I tried reaching @BE-Webdesign on the Gutenberg repository https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/2804 two weeks ago, but haven't yet received a response, which is why this issue is a bit delayed.
@micahwave if this is a time pressing issue for you - you could try to remove and re-add technique in your own project - that wouldn't require direct modification of neither Ramp nor Gutenberg. If you do try it - please let me know the results and whether or not something broke as a result of that.
This issue is resolved by #70 - the plugins_loaded hook priority no longer exists in 1.1
Originally reported by @micahwave
The priority of the
plugins_loaded
hooks is currently set in a way that makes it so no custom meta boxes get loaded.If you use wpcom_vip_load_gutenberg, it's going to enable gutenberg here:
https://github.com/Automattic/gutenberg-ramp/blob/8017c04609a9589b380b09fb66da5ea81acf4f8a/inc/class-gutenberg-ramp.php#L40
The issue is that gutenberg itself registers a
plugins_loaded
hook at a lower priority:https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/master/lib/register.php#L27
With the current setup, the
gutenberg_trick_plugins_into_registering_meta_boxes
function is never called because ramp isn't activated in time.If you change the
load_decision
hook priority to 5 it seems to fix the issue.
