Portfolio Meta

Displays the portfolio project details: client, date, skills, and URL. Use inside portfolio single templates. It is shown in the block inserter as Portfolio Meta and registered as canvas-core/portfolio-meta.

Select the block on a page and its own settings open in the sidebar, in the panels below:

Each setting is named exactly as the block editor names it, followed by what it does and what it starts as. Where a setting carries a Shown when line, it stays hidden until that condition is met, which is the usual reason a setting looks missing from the sidebar:
