Important note: The new Form block is similar to the one distributed in our Gutenberg Add-On, but with one important difference; it does not include the block conditional logic setting. This is due to a limitation in the WordPress editor which prevents us from implementing the setting in a completely secure way for all sites. The Form block in the Gutenberg Add-On will continue to support the conditional logic setting and has been renamed to Form (Experimental). It’s possible to transform between the two Form blocks at any time.
