Compatibility question - Editor button for Shortcode UI #13

Open davebonds opened 6 years ago

We have a plugin that adds a media button to the classic editor for inserting a shortcode, in a very similar fashion to Shortcake/Shortcode UI (in fact, Shortcake is also supported).

Considering that a user can still add a shortcode using the Gutenberg block, would not having this UI for "building" the shortcode be considered an incompatibility?

For the purposes of our research, yes. Compatibility is defined as:

A WordPress user can perform the same functional task with Gutenberg active. For instance, if the plugin includes an "Add Media" button, it's considered Gutenberg-compatible when it has a block registered for the Gutenberg inserter. Feature-parity, essentially.

Also, for what it's worth, the missing "Add Media" button seems like a very common incompatibility and may be something we can accommodate in Gutenberg.
