Was looking ages for it. So strange this function is not part of the native loop block. Thanks

You can replace many other freemium post-grip plugins with this one. It gives the feature to default query loop to select a post by title. Hope this plugin will be around for many more years.

If you need to query juste one post inside a block query, this plugin is for you! A must-have that should be native!
