Description
Advanced Most Recent Posts Widget displays your recent posts with thumbnail images (optional). It gets posts from selected categories or current category or all categories. When your visitors are at home, it gets posts from all posts or selected category. If you set ‘Get posts from current category’, when visitors see single post, widget lists posts in the same category of single post or when visitors click a category link, it gets posts from current category.
Check out a brand new plugin inspired by this one: Mini Loops
I’m bad at support (not intentionally). If you have questions: check the forums, then check my blog post’s comment thread. If that doesn’t work, post to the forums (there are awesome volunteers out there!) and get my attention by pinging me on twitter @trepmal.

You know that
Thumbnail Custom Field Name
If you want to display the thumbnail of your posts via a custom field, write its name.
Height – Width
Images size.
Get first image of post
If you don’t want to use custom field, plugin will get first image from your post content.
Get first attached image of post
Plugin gets first attached image of post.
Default image
If post has no image, plugin display this image. Ex: http://www.yakupgovler.com/default-image.png
Notice: If you use three options, plugin uses custom field image firstly. If the post has no custom field, it gets first image from content. At last it gets first attached image. I suggest not to use “Get first image of post” for performance. It queries much more.
Show Author
If checked, shows author next to title
Show Post Timestamp
If checked, shows post timestamp
Time format
The format to be used when displaying the timestamp
Put time
A placement option for the post timestamp
Categories

FAQ
- How can I set it to get posts from current category?
-
Select checkbox on widget’s settings called ‘Get posts from current category’.
- I want to display only the posts in two categories.
-
You have to write their category’s ids -separated with a comma- to ‘Categories’ textbox.
- I don’t use Widgets. How can use this widget?
-
template tag:
yg_recentposts( $args )
shortcode:[amrp]with args
Original author’s website. - …. Image alignment ….
-
If you need serious customization, please go learn CSS. I will not provide extensive CSS support. (Sorry – there are just far too many variations, and I do all this in my spare time)
The most frequest request I get has to do with aligning the image to the right or left. To get started with customization, create a file called amrp-styles.php (really, any name will do) and upload it to
wp-content/mu-plugins(you may need to create this directory).In that file, paste the following
.advanced-recent-posts {
/* remove bullet points /
list-style-type: none;
}
.advanced-recent-posts li {
}
.advanced-recent-posts li a {
}
.advanced-recent-posts li img {
float: right; / change to left if you’d prefer */
margin: 3px;
}<?php
}Of course, if you have the skills, feel free to relocate that CSS.
