Has anyone else got this? I've added my form as a block and then given it a class in the 'Advanced' block option, but it doesn't appear in the html.

Sounds like a caching thing to me.

Yeah, I'm not using caching, it's on a dev site.

Server side caching possible? Can you share a public link and provide any explanation, if necessary?

I suggest you report this as a bug. I confirm it's not working. The block isn't playing nicely with Gutenberg. The advanced class field in the editor adds the class to the block wrapper, not the form itself. When you examine the HTML, there is no Gutenberg block wrapper being generated for the form block.

Was this ever acknowledged as a bug? And/or what work around have people used?

We wouldn't know whether S11 acknowledged this as a bug. This is a Community Forum. We don't have any insight into what the S11developers do or plan. I can confirm, it's not working as of v6.4 The workaround is to use jQuery.

Okay np, Thanks for you time in replying Victor!

That's the one reason I always embed the shortcode in a custom HTML block so I can use my own wrappers.
