  • Hey, to disable this feature, you have to add a filter to the save function of the block and override the cover block.

    
wp.hooks.addFilter(
	'blocks.getSaveElement',
	'cover/disableAutoPlay',
	disableAutoPlay
);

function disableAutoPlay( element, blockType, attributes ) {
	if ( blockType.name !== 'core/cover' ) {
		return element;
	}
	return (
		// use the save function of the cover block and modify it.
	);
}

    An alternative would be to disable this attribute via JS on the frontend.

    Thanks for answering. I will try this next time. I solved it yesterday where I just copied the HTML source, removed the loop and added that HTML-code in the editor.
