Creating simplest custom template
By default plugin will be search custom templates in a folder named templates in your theme. For create the one just add into this directory a new file with name like tpc-{template-name}.php. Every template should be named by that mask! Then put in created file your code. For example:
<?php foreach ($entries as $entry) : ?>
<div class="entry">
<h3>
<?php echo $entry['title'] ?>
</h3>
<div class="post-content">
<?php echo $entry['content'] ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
For using your templates in shortcode, you need just choose it in widget or pass full filename (but without extension) in shortcode. For example:
template=”tpc-my-template”
