 * Hi, by that I meant that if the Posts block is included in a post (not a page)
   and for example that posts’s category is “News” that it shows posts only from
   that same “News” category if option “show only posts from same category” is selected.
 * Thank you

 * Umm, I’m still a bit confused. There’s no “show only posts from same category”
   option in Posts Block. Can you give us a screenshot?

 * I know there isn’t, this is a feature request, and I was stating an example of
   how would that look like.

 * Hi,
 * The option to filter out the posts by their category is already present.
 * Steps:
    1. Insert a Post Block 2. Press on the gear icon [1] on the top-right
   corner – this will open a sidebar 3. On the sidebar, there should be a section
   named Settings [2] 4. You can select from the dropdown the category you want
 * !! The block works only with the category recognized by the WordPress internals.
   If you have a plugin with some feature isolated from WordPress, it will not be
   shown on the options.
