Hello,  
I am having an issue where the _nodes_ parameter is not taking any effect on a _writer_ field in my blueprint.  
I confirmed is not a cache issue as other changes are updating.

Any idea of why this happens or if I’m doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance.

```auto
name: field.blocks.text.name
icon: text
preview: text
fields:
  text:
    type: writer
    marks:
      - link
      - underline
      - bold
      - italic
    nodes:
      - heading
    placeholder: field.blocks.text.placeholder

```

Are you overwriting the default text.yml in /site/blueprints/blocks/text.yml?

This is so strange! There is no way I can see the nodes:

Ok, so the changes to marks work. What about if you add other nodes?

Which Kirby version are you using?
