Hello LottieFiles Team,

We are experiencing two critical issues with the LottieFiles WordPress plugin:

Block Validation Error:

When adding a LottieFiles block, the block saves raw JSON data in the post content, which causes block validation errors and breaks the editor experience.

Large File Upload Crash:

Uploading large Lottie or JSON files (over 2MB) causes the editor to crash or become unresponsive. There is no file size validation or user feedback.

Recovery Attempt:

We attempted to patch the plugin to only save the file URL (not raw JSON) and to add file size validation. However, due to build issues (npm install fails), we were unable to deploy these fixes.

Impact:

Users cannot reliably add or edit LottieFiles blocks.

Large file uploads can break the editor, risking data loss.

We are unable to recover or update the plugin due to build failures.

Request:

Please provide an official fix for the block validation and file upload issues, and guidance on resolving the build problems so we can update the plugin.

Thank you!
