I am trying to separate Custom ACF Gutenberg Blocks from the rest of the core blocks on a post. Currently I am using the_content(); This is grabbing every block in the Gutenberg Editor. What I want to do now is look at all the blocks in the Gutenberg editor, check to see if they are a custom ACF block, and if they are an ACF block then output them else, don't output the block. What I have currently is:

$blocks = parse_blocks( get_the_content() );
foreach ( $blocks as $block ) {
    if ( 'acf/qd-center-copy' === $block['blockName'] ) {
      echo $block['innerHTML'];
    }
}

So what hte above function is doing is looping through the blocks in the Gutenberg editor, checking to see if the blockname is 'acf/qd-center-copy' if the block name equals 'acf/qd-center-copy' then output that block. The issue I am running into is the outputting of that block and I'm not sure what I need to do to output the custom ACF block properly.

Here is the what is ouputted for the block with the block name of 'acf/qd-center-copy' when I use print_r($block):

 Array
(
    [blockName] => acf/qd-center-copy
    [attrs] => Array
        (
            [id] => block_5caf50e1cda63
            [data] => Array
                (
                    [qd_background_color_toggle] => 1
                    [_qd_background_color_toggle] => field_5c700fe8bb525
                    [qd_headline] => Test Centered Text block
                    [_qd_headline] => field_5c70100ebb526

Try using the code below to display the html for your block. I found the solution here.

render_block( $block )
