Admin Menu Post List adds a simple post list in the admin menu for easy access. It supports posts, pages, and custom post types.
In the normal admin menu, when you’re editing a post and wish to go to another one, you have to click on All Posts, then select a post — or have All Posts open on another browser tab. With the Admin Menu Post List, you can just select the next post to edit, direct from the menu.
<ul>
<li>Install and activate the plugin</li>
<li>Go to Settings->Post List, enable post types and options</li>
</ul>
A post list will be added to the bottom of each corresponding post type’s menu. You can see it by hovering over the menu item, or when the item is open. The current post is shown in bold, draft/pending posts are in italics, and child pages are listed under the parent.
<h4>Options</h4>

For each post type, you can limit the number of items to display: for example, the five most recent posts.
You can choose to order the post list by:
<ul>
<li>Created date</li>
<li>Modified date</li>
<li>Title</li>
<li>Menu order</li>
</ul>
And the direction of the order:
<ul>
<li>ASC – ascending – alphabetical (1, 2, 3; a, b, c)</li>
<li>DESC – descending – new to old (3, 2, 1; c, b, a)</li>
</ul>
By default, they are set to display from most recent to older posts.
Also, you can choose to display only published posts, and exclude those with future, draft or pending status.
Global settings:
<ul>
<li>Limit title length – Trim the title by number of characters</li>
<li>Hide child posts</li>
<li>Include non-public post types</li>
</ul>

<h4>Note</h4>

There is a plugin called <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/" rel="ugc">Intuitive Custom Post Order</a>, which lets you order posts by drag and drop. If it’s installed, it overrides the post order settings in the admin menu also.

Sometimes you may have a lot of admin menu items based on your WordPress installation. With this plugin, you only need to type a few letters of the item name you’re looking for and voila! The plugin uses modern vanilla JavaScript to filter menu items efficiently with case-insensitive matching.
Key Features:
<ul>
<li>No jQuery dependency – Pure vanilla JavaScript for better performance</li>
<li>Debounced search – Optimized filtering with 150ms delay for smooth typing</li>
<li>Keyboard shortcuts – Ctrl/Cmd + F to focus search, Escape to clear</li>
<li>Accessibility support – Proper ARIA labels and keyboard navigation</li>
<li>Modern CSS – Smooth transitions and visual feedback</li>
<li>Performance optimized – Efficient DOM manipulation and event handling</li>
</ul>
How it works:
The plugin adds a search input at the top of the admin menu and follows these filtering rules:
<ol>
<li>For parent menu items: Matching items remain visible</li>
<li>For child menu items: Matching items stay highlighted and keep their parent visible</li>
<li>Visual feedback: Filtered items are hidden, active items get subtle background highlighting</li>
</ol>
Technical Improvements in v0.3:
<ul>
<li>Complete rewrite – Eliminated jQuery dependency for faster loading</li>
<li>Enhanced UX – Added keyboard shortcuts and better visual states</li>
<li>Better architecture – Modular JavaScript with proper error handling</li>
<li>Improved accessibility – Screen reader support and keyboard navigation</li>
<li>Modern styling – Updated CSS with focus states and transitions</li>
</ul>
