    Helo,

    I am running the plugin on WordPress 5.7.3

    Using the gutenberg editor, I have inserted an insert pages block with a URL to another page. However, the block does not seem to load the page as it still says “Choose a page to insert”.

    Please advice, thank you!

    Is the other page in the same WordPress site? If you start typing the title of the other page in the field, does it show up in the dropdown selector? Perhaps the other page is not publicly visible, like it’s in draft or password-protected status?

    Yes, the other page is a published page in the same WordPress site.

    I now see the pages in the dropdown selector, but when selected, the block only shows the title of the selected page without the content of its page. Are there settings that I need to adjust?

    Yes, in the block settings there’s a “Display” dropdown that lets you pick several different formats (title, title+excerpt, content, link, etc.).

    Thanks Paul! The plugin now works.

    By any chance, is it possible to insert only a section of a page? Say on the page I have a heading with an anchor. Can I add #anchor-name at the end of the URL field?

    I tried doing that, but it causes the block to not load anything at all. Please advice, thank you 🙂

    You can insert the excerpt and customize the excerpt to the content you want.

    If that’s not enough, you’ll probably have to create a custom template to display exactly what you’re looking for:
