Image slider is not being distributed properly

[fredy-james]

Describe your question

I am using a plugin (Getwid Image slider) to add an image slider block in the post content. I have image and gallery blocks as well in the post content. When the post is distributed from Site A to Site B, the image, gallery and slider blocks are transferred fine. However, on the distributed site(Site B) the image URLs in the slider block is still pointing to Site A image URL resulting in a broken image.
Note: The images are hosted in AWS. So when then distributed post is pointing to image URL in Site A, it display a broken image. However, for image and gallery blocks the images are downloaded corrected and added to the AWS of the distributed site (Site B).

I tried the below filter to add the block name and attribute containing the image ids to consider as a media block but that didn't make any difference.

function custom_parse_media_blocks( $media_blocks ) {
	$media_blocks['getwid/images-slider'] = 'ids';
	return $media_blocks;
}
add_filter( 'dt_parse_media_blocks',  'custom_parse_media_blocks' );

Am I using the wrong filter? Any help would be really appreciated.

@fredy-james you'll likely want to take a look at https://10up.github.io/distributor/tutorial-stored-id-handling.html as that will hopefully shed some light on how to handle distributing data that includes stored IDs.

@jeffpaul thank you for your response. This was helpful to fix the issue with transferring Gravity forms and also update the slider block attribute (ids) in the distributed website. However, just updating the ids attribute didn't fix the slider issue. Looks like the slider plugin uses a static block and the image URLs are still pointing to the source site.

So I used the filter dt_after_registered_block_data_processed to modify the slider block content but results in a "Block contains invalid content" message in the editor.
