About this Plugin
Category Posts Block is a light block designed to do one thing and do it well: display the most recent posts from a certain category.
Static WordPress Challenge
Initial category post lists and block output should work in the static export. Load More and any other REST-driven updates require Static Studio's managed origin or a configured REST proxy; without that, the initial content remains available but interactive loading will not work. The wp_footer callbacks may warrant manual review if they add additional frontend behavior.
