Thanks for creating this amazing plugin. I have one suggestion you can take as an
idea for a future feature inclusion. You can add an option to filters posts with
a determined offset. Let’s say I already created a block with 2 posts displayed 
side by side. If I wanted to append a grid of the next 10 remaining posts, then 
the 2 I have just included will be repeated. Whereas if I select an offset, I can
exclude the first 2 posts from the grid.

### 󠀁[Does what is says and not clunky like other plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-what-is-says-and-not-clunky-like-other-plugins/)󠁿

Really simple to use. Just so you know though ( and probably an improvement suggestion),
the “Show posts only from current category” under the filter tab work in reverse.
If it is unchecked, it will filter posts based on your selected category/tag but
if it is checked, then it will not filter anything at all. Aside from that, the 
widget still looks great compared to other plugins that do what this does.
