Description
Description
If a block has its parent or ancestor property set in block.json, it won't be show in the inserter unless the inserter is called from a location inside one the blocks listed in either property. For example, if a block has "ancestor": [ "core/template-part" ], it will only be shown in the inserter when inside a Template Part block.
OTOH, if the editor is used to edit a Template Part entity, that block will not be shown in the inserter. The reason is that techncally, there's no actual Template Part block present in the block hierarchy. This should be fixed to show the block, as it's probably what most users will expect.
This isn't limited to Template Parts but also other entities that have a corresponding block type, e.g. Navigation, etc.
