 * I’m using this widget as a shortcode for my pages. But I have a loooooot of pages
   and I need to set up the settings for every single page. It’s time consuming 
   and user unfriendly to be honest.
 * Is there a way to have all the shortcodes (they’re the same on all of the pages)
   use global settings (that I can set up somewhere)? Or anything?

 * Hello [@markdj83](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markdj83/),
 * a.) may this widget can help you to show same posts for the current shown post
   and you have to pace the widget just one time: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/same-category-posts/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/same-category-posts/)
 * b.) If you are a developer you can have this to do more from scratch: [https://github.com/tiptoppress/update-settings-tool/tree/master](https://github.com/tiptoppress/update-settings-tool/tree/master)
 * c.) Check out WordPress Synced- / Reusable Blocks: [https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/reusable-blocks/](https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/reusable-blocks/)

 * Thanks for your suggestions. The pattern block seems useful but I don’t think
   it will work with this kind of block, where you have to customize with a separate
   page. Or does it work?
 * I’ll give the first plugin a try but I’m currently using this plugin because 
   of the auto grid layout. I hope it has the same option, else it isn’t an option
   I’m afraid.

 * We have an Add-on to select related terms and categories for the premium widget
   Term and Category Based Posts Widget: [https://gist.github.com/DanielFloeter/221f3b5cf786170154391af3774b62df](https://gist.github.com/DanielFloeter/221f3b5cf786170154391af3774b62df)
 * ToDo: Just download and install the PHP file as a normal Widget with the WordPress
   admin pages and activate or deactivate the Add-on at the WordPress Plugins page.

 * Thank you. And what does this add-on do exactly?
 * I’m just looking for a way to have a set of default settings so I don’t have 
   to change them all manually every single time I add this block to a page.

 * Never mind, found a different plugin to do the job. Though, I’d rather have used
   this one. Maybe something for the future.
