Module Description
Provides the ability to load blocks via Ajax method. One can easily configure new and existing blocks to load via Ajax.
Essentially a placeholder will be dropped in place instead of fully rendering the block. The block content will be pulled from a custom route and then rendered in place via Ajax.
Rendering or display blocks via Ajax is sometimes necessary to get around various levels of caching on a site.
Requirements
No special requirements. Essentially requires Drupal Core blocks.
Install
Install like any other contributed module. Installing through composer is recommended:
Composer composer require drupal/block_ajax drush en block_ajax Usage
* Visit Structure -> Block layout page.
* Edit or create new block.
* New section should appear on block called "Ajax Block".
* Check "Load block via Ajax".
* Configure any other necessary block settings. Save block.
* Place block in region.
* Test page where block was placed, and it should load via Ajax.
Notes
8.x-2.0 and up is completely redesigned and it quite different then previous versions. Latest branch/releases provide interface to load blocks via Ajax and other configurable options.
Previous branches (8.x-1.0 & below), provide a new blockbase class to extend from when building out new/custom blocks. Which in turn, provides Ajax functionality on that block.
Older branches will not be supported anymore, but can be used for the time being.
