Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Problem/Motivation
I can add block fields, which is great, but some of the blocks have extra configuration options and I cannot set them.
Steps to reproduce
Go to admin/structure/ds/fields/manage_block and fill the data there. When you select a block nothing extra appears.
For example, if you also enable core's book module, the block 'Book navigation' will be available. This block has 2 options for displaying the data. If I add this block using the Block Layout interface I can configure these options. But not using the block field from DS.
Proposed resolution
The method blockForm from each block needs to be called and the form needs to be presented to the user, so the user can configure the block that will be displayed using the block field feature.
Remaining tasks
User interface changes
API changes
Data model changes

swentel CreditAttribution: swentel at eps & kaas commentedActually the option to set the configuration is available, but it's a bit hidden. After creating a block, you're redirect to the overview again. Instead you should be redirect to the the configuration tab (in the operations there's a 'Configuration'.
So I'll add that so that you're redirected to that page after creating one.
