[rohitmathur-7]

What?

• Removing patterns from the Quick Inserter.
• Fixes Issue: Remove patterns from the Quick Inserter to prevent misuse in block-specific contexts #67693

Why?

• We are removing Patterns from the quick inserter to prevent misuse in block-specific contexts.

How?

• Set maxBlockPatterns to 0 which will help in not showing patterns in the quick inserter.

Testing Instructions

• Open the block editor and add any block (e.g., Social Links).
• Click the “+” button in the block toolbar to open the Quick Inserter.
• Search for items, and observe that patterns are not included in the results.

@rohitmathur-7 Thanks for working on this. This will be a really great change to get merged.

In testing I still see at least one issue to resolve.

The + appender button tooltip still says 'Add pattern' instead of 'Add block':

I think you can probably go through the code a bit more and remove instances of prioritizePatterns and related code, as that seems to be what causes the issue.

Sure @talldan ,
Apologies for the delayed response 🙇‍♂️, and thank you so much for reviewing the code.
I’ll work on the suggested changes today. 🚀

Hii @talldan ,
I have updated the code to remove prioritizePatterns instances from wherever possible.
Can you please review the code again? 🙇
Thanks!
