Plugin Description
This is another simple plugin to show a list of posts from your blog.
Use the [postlist] shortcode on any post or page.
The shortcode supports several options:
-
category: If defined, show posts only from this category.
Specify the category using its slug identifier. If you provide
multiple comma-seperated category slugs then they will all be
included.
-
tag: If defined, show posts only from this tag. Specify the tag
using its slug identifier. If you provide multiple comma-seperated
tag slugs then they will all be included.
-
style: One of list (default) or post. If it
is list, then the list style is indented and bulleted. If it is post
then the title is promoted to <h2 class="upcoming-entry-title"> and
the list style is plain.
-
text: One of none (default), excerpt, excerpt-formatted,
or normal. If it is excerpt, then the post excerpt is shown, similar
to search results. If it is normal then the full post (up to
the [more] tag) is shown.
-
more_text: Specify the text to append onto truncated excerpts.
Defaults to ....
-
null_text: If no results are returned, shows this text.
Defaults to (none).
-
class_name: If defined, adds this class name to the generated <ul>
element. Useful for custom styling.
-
show_date: If defined, the post date will precede the post title.
-
date_format: If showing the date, this php date format will be
used. The default is the Date Format value from the General Settings
page. I recommend "F j, Y", which displays as “May 12, 2012”.
-
q: Arbitrary &-separated arguments to add to the query. See the
WP_Query
page for available syntax. For example, to show only three posts and
you want to show them in ascending instead of descending order, you would
write [postlist q="posts_per_page=3&order=ASC"].
The output can then be further formatted using CSS. We recommend the
plugin Improved Simpler
CSS for
quickly styling your post list (and your site)!
This plugin can also be easily made into a widget by placing the shortcode
into a text widget, and activating the Shortcodes in
sidebar
plugin.
