    I’m not sure what exactly you’re looking for. Are you actually looking to display a list of posts from a specific category on a page? This would be possible with the query loop block: https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/query-loop-block/

    If this is not the case, please describe in more detail what you are looking for.

    To add a post grid displaying content from a specific category in WordPress, you can follow these steps:

    1. Install and Activate a Post Grid Plugin: There are several WordPress plugins available that allow you to create post grids. One popular option is “WP Grid Builder.” You can install and activate it from the WordPress plugin repository.
    2. Create a New Post Grid: After activating the plugin, navigate to the plugin settings or dashboard. Look for an option to create a new post grid.
    3. Configure the Post Grid: In the grid creation interface, you’ll find various settings to customize the appearance and content of your post grid. Look for an option to filter posts by category.
    4. Select the Specific Category: Within the post grid settings, you should find an option to choose which category’s posts you want to display. Select the category you’re interested in.
    5. Customize Display Options: Adjust other settings such as layout, number of columns, pagination, etc., to match your preferences.
    6. Insert the Post Grid Shortcode: Once you’ve configured the post grid to your liking, the plugin will provide you with a shortcode. Copy this shortcode.
    7. Add the Shortcode to a Page or Post: Create a new page or edit an existing one where you want to display the post grid. Paste the shortcode into the page or post content.
    8. Preview and Publish: Preview the page to see how the post grid looks. If everything looks good, publish the page.
    9. Check the Output: Visit the page where you inserted the post grid shortcode to ensure that it’s displaying posts from the specific category as intended.

    By following these steps, you should be able to add a post grid displaying content from a specific category on your WordPress website using a plugin like WP Grid Builder.

    I am still unsure which block you are using. If it is Query Loop, you must deactivate the “Inherit query from template” option on the right. Then you have the filter below to restrict the view to a category, among other things, as described here: https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/query-loop-block/#filters
