    Hey!
    I like the plugin ??. I guess you have many ideas for what the block should do. Just wanted to open a list of ideas I have and maybe other people add there ideas below.

    One feature I need again and again is support for multiple post types.

    The second ideas is to query posts by the current user. So whatever user is logged-in the list of posts changes.

    Have a great day

    Hi @drivingralle !

    Thanks for taking the time to open this thread!

    Both of these are interesting challenges as the default block currently provides interfaces for that.

    Can you explain the use-case for the currently logged in user? Out of the box, that would show nothing on the front end for any non-logged in visitor – which is typically all of them.

    I’ve added multiple post types to my list of enhancements. Feel free to add more as well!

    I’m using WP for many use cases. One of them is internal communication inside of companies on none-public websites (logged-in-only).

    Inside this systems the users have personal dashboards (in frontend) that shows all related things. Sometimes this are even a mix of the two ideas I described above.
    For example: All the media they created/added to the system: books and movies or cars and motobikes.
    Or just a list of on post type they have added.

    If I come across more feature ideas I’ll add them below

    Thanks for clarifying! I’ve actually started building out a solution for multiple post types based on this suggestion.

    At the moment, I think the logged in user feature is a little too niche for this plugin so I don’t think I’ll add that in for now.

    I appreciate your input on the plugin! I’m going to close this out but if you have any other ideas, please feel free to open a new issue or add it to the repository here

    Looking forward to the new version!

    Filtering by logged in user could be interesting for sites where there are more contributors.

    It could allow having menu option called like “Your Posts” so they can have easy access to post they created, once they log in.
