In what way do you mean "block"? Normally, you wouldn't add anything to
lib-common.php for a block that shows up on the right or left column.
If the block contains no dynamic content, you can do it directly from the block
editor.
If the block contains dynamic content (i.e., PHP code), you add the code to
lib-custom.php in the "geeklog/system" directory. For example, the following
will create a php_block that displays the current weekday:
function phpblock_weekday() {
$theDayName = date('%l');
$theText = "Today is $theDayName.";
return $theText;
}
Any phpblock has to begin with "phpblock". You then add the function's name to
the phpblock section of the block editor.
