<p>This plugin enables theme developers to ship patterns that behave as synced patterns (reusable blocks) while maintaining the benefits of theme-bundled patterns. When a theme pattern is marked as synced, it automatically becomes available as a reusable block that updates across all instances when modified.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Theme-Provided Synced Patterns</strong>: Convert any theme pattern into a synced pattern by adding a simple metadata flag</li>
<li><strong>Automatic Synchronization</strong>: Updates to synced patterns propagate across all instances site-wide</li>
<li><strong>Block Bindings Support</strong>: Full compatibility with WordPress block bindings</li>
<li><strong>Template Integration</strong>: Use synced patterns in templates and template parts</li>
<li><strong>Seamless User Experience</strong>: Synced patterns appear naturally in the pattern inserter</li>
</ul>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<h4>For Theme Developers</h4>
<p>To make a theme pattern synced, add <code>Synced: true</code> to the pattern file’s metadata header:</p>
<pre><code><?php
/**
 * Title: My Synced Pattern
 * Slug: mytheme/my-pattern
 * Categories: featured
 * Synced: true
 */
?>

</code></pre>
<h4>Using Synced Patterns in Templates</h4>
<p>Reference synced patterns in templates or other patterns using the pattern block:</p>
<pre><code><h3>Development</h3>
