Include posts in a Page, by category, a selection of tags or by author with an auto summary (read more) option. Supports pagination when number of posts per page is specified.<\/p>\n\n

For example if you want a Page (in the main header navigation) to show a list of all posts in a category or set of tags and summarise the posts then this plugin will do it. Add a simple shortcode to the page (in HTML view) and the page is generated from the matching posts.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload plugin-name.php<\/code> to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n
