Reusable Blocks – Disappearing HTML code on 4th/5th use
-
When I use reusable blocks in WP post editor, I copy paste the embed code into /shortcode format (I’ve also tested HTML).
The code works.
I save it as a Reusable block.
I use that block as a CTA 2x in the blog post.
Then, I use that reusable block CTA (which now has a little ‘lego block’ symbol over it), in 1-2 more blogs, using the block 2x each post.
By the 3rd or post post of using this block, the symbol beside the Reusable Block’s name, has changed from a ‘Lego block’ symbol, to a black box with white shapes inside.
When this happens, the reusable block no longer works.
I can go into Manage Reusable Blocks, click on the block that was just working 1-2 blog posts previously, but now, when I look in the code, the embed code that was previously there, is empty.
The code vanishes.
So I re-paste the HTML code.
But could someone clue me in on what is happening here?
Many thanks!

>> Code should look similar to this, but specific for this CTA.

>>> What it looks like on a blog post when the Reusable block is working (unless this one quits before anyone can answer this….LOL)
It looks like this on a blog post:
