- A container (`container: true`) declares `renderFrame` only. `render` is not permitted; `validateRenderHooks` checks this at runtime. - `render` returns only the block's content. Both HTML serializers call `renderFrame` themselves (`renderFrameDOM`): a container is its frame, and a block with content goes into its frame's slot. - The spec has `toExternalHTML` only when the author wrote one. Without it, the external HTML serializer makes the default export (`render` in the frame). One export rule: a frame is exported unless the block has its own `toExternalHTML`. - External HTML treats containers like regular blocks: no `data-node-type`, `data-id` or slot marker; props stay as `data-*`. Columns get `parse` functions, so they still round-trip. - One slot marker (`data-frame-slot`) and one finder (`findFrameSlot`) replace `data-frame-slot-todo` and `data-children-of`. - A frame's `dom` is an `HTMLElement`; fragment support for frames is gone. `renderFrame`'s context no longer has `blockContentDOMAttributes`. - React frames take `slotRef`. A React container renders through `FrameNodeView`, not through `render`. - `createBlockSpecFromTiptapNode` drops the `container`, `children` and `placeable` options (no users). - Restore main's doc comment for `render`'s `update` hook.

- A React `toExternalHTML` component gets `childrenRef`, which marks where the block's children go in the export. It maps to core's `childrenDOM`. - A container's `toExternalHTML` no longer gets `contentRef`: it has no content. - `renderToDOMSpec` is unchanged. The export wrapper marks the element and finds it in the rendered DOM. - Docs: describe `childrenRef`; fix `contest` to `context` in the type.

Container children are dropped when a custom export does not place them.
A container with its own toExternalHTML may return no childrenDOM. In React, this happens when the export does not use childrenRef, because takeMarked returns undefined. In that case:
childrenDOMisundefined.- A container node is not in the
blockContentgroup. - The final branch calls
ret.contentDOM?.append(childFragment).
A container has no contentDOM, because its type gives no contentRef, so this call does nothing. The child blocks are silently removed from external HTML, which includes clipboard copy. This breaks the documented contract in ReactBlockSpec.tsx Lines 111-114 ("Without childrenRef, the children follow the block") and in custom-blocks.mdx.
Fall back to placing the children after the block when no destination exists.
🐛 Proposed fix

- editor.pmSchema.nodes[block.type as any].isInGroup("blockContent")
- ) {
+ } else if (
+ editor.pmSchema.nodes[block.type as any].isInGroup("blockContent") ||
+ !ret.contentDOM
+ ) {
// default "blockContainer" style blocks are flattened (no "nested block" support) for externalHTML, so append the child fragment to the outer fragment
+ // A container export that declares no children destination: children follow it.
fragment.append(childFragment);
} else {
// for columns / column lists, do use nesting
- ret.contentDOM?.append(childFragment);
+ ret.contentDOM.append(childFragment);

Follow-up to #3059. This PR applies the decisions from the review threads about
render,renderFrameand the container API.Summary
The main rule:
rendernever returns a frame.renderdraws the block's content.renderFramedraws the frame. The code that assembles a block (the node views and the HTML serializers) puts the content into the frame.Changes
Container API
container: true) declares onlyrenderFrame. It cannot declarerender, because it has no content.validateRenderHookschecks this at runtime.slotRef(before:contentRef). A React container renders throughFrameNodeView, not throughrender.toExternalHTMLcomponent getschildrenRef. It marks where the block's children go in the export, like core'schildrenDOM. A container'stoExternalHTMLno longer getscontentRef, because a container has no content.Frames
data-frame-slot) and one finder (findFrameSlot) replacedata-frame-slot-todoanddata-children-of.dommust be anHTMLElement. Fragment support for frames is removed.renderFrame's context no longer hasblockContentDOMAttributes. No frame used it.renderFrameDOMdraws a frame outside the editor. Both HTML serializers use it.HTML export
toExternalHTML. In that case,toExternalHTMLreplaces the content and the frame.renderreturns only content. Both serializers callrenderFramethemselves.toExternalHTMLonly when the author wrote one. Without it, the external HTML serializer makes the default export.data-node-type,data-idordata-frame-slot. Props stay asdata-*attributes.parsefunctions, so they still round-trip through external HTML.Other
createBlockSpecFromTiptapNodeno longer has thecontainer,childrenandplaceableoptions. Nothing used them.render'supdatehook is main's text again. The previous text said that only containers useupdate. This was not correct.Behavior changes
editor.schema.blockSpecs[type].implementation.toExternalHTMLno longer falls back torender. A block without its owntoExternalHTMLhas none.parsedoes not parse back from external HTML (blocksToHTMLLossy, pastedtext/html). This is the same as for other custom blocks. Internal HTML round-trips as before.markdown/titledBlock/basic.md. We must decide how to handle this (see "Open items").Snapshots
data-children-of/data-frame-slot-todotodata-frame-slot).render, and blocks without their own export have notoExternalHTML.Open items
These are marked with
TODOorFIXMEin the code:renderType: "dom", or export only the slot.render. An internal adapter hook, likeframeNodeView, would letrenderonly draw.createFrameViewreturns a stand-in node view when the block has no frame. It should returnNodeView | undefined.createReactBlockSpecis still hard to read.domAttributes.blockContentnever reaches serialization. See BLO-1386.Tests
