Step-by-step reproduction instructions

1. Download and install Twenty Twenty-Two theme
2. Open theme folder in any code editor and go to inc folder >block-patterns.php file

Can you share more about why you're trying to do this? I imagine this is expected to not work since the pattern directory is only meant to show individual patterns :)

I am trying to create meaningful page patterns for admin to use like home-page, about-page etc with the help of multiple patterns so that admin can able to create pages for website using single pattern (which consist of multiple patterns) on single click. These patterns are working fine too except issue of loading pattern in pattern popup
I am trying to reuse registered patterns or creating nested patterns to avoid repetition of code and provide beautiful designs to admin for use.
A group of small individual patterns can create a beautiful design.

Ah ha gotcha. Full page patterns are still being explored currently: #38787 You can see more around building with patterns in general here: #38529

I'm not quite sure if what you're describing is supported yet/a best practice, which is likely why you're running into this problem. What happens if, when registering, in the content you copy/paste the full HTML rather than referencing the patterns themselves? I might lean on that method for now. I'll keep this open in case others have any thoughts though as I would image this could be something folks would want to be able to lean on in the future.

If, we registering, in the content copy/paste the full HTML rather than referencing the patterns there then it's just a repetition of the same code and in future, if we will have to correct or change something in patterns then we will have to do this in multiple places which is not a good code practice.
I think, reusability of patterns is the best, optimized and fastest way to implement this kind of feature.

Hi @randhirexpresstech ! Full-page patterns should now be possible with #40034. Can you confirm so we can close this issue?
