Validating block patterns for WordPress.org submission requires checking pattern registration, custom categories, block names, and viewportWidth settings. This process ensures your plugin's patterns meet the pattern API standards required for approval.

What does pattern registration validation include for WordPress plugins?▼

Pattern registration validation verifies titles, descriptions, categories, and content for block patterns. It ensures custom categories are correctly registered and block names conform to WordPress pattern API requirements.

How do I check viewportWidth settings in WordPress block patterns?▼

Checking viewportWidth settings involves validating pattern content to ensure the viewportWidth parameter is correctly set. This confirms block patterns will render properly in the WordPress.org pattern directory previews.
