GS Posts Widget

Thanks for creating this amazing plugin. I have one suggestion you can take as an idea for a future feature inclusion. You can add an option to filters posts with a determined offset. Let's say I already created a block with 2 posts displayed side by side. If I wanted to append a grid of the next 10 remaining posts, then the 2 I have just included will be repeated. Whereas if I select an offset, I can exclude the first 2 posts from the grid.

Great plugin

Best Responsive WordPress Posts Widget Plugin to display latest Posts elegantly.
