<p><strong>Introducing new feature in 0.6.13 version: the embedded video instead of the Post Featured Image</strong></p>
<p>You can use the embedded video (first movie) instead of the Post Featured Image in Responsive Grid Layout. This feature is experimental and now the plugin support Youtube video only. If you have any ideas about this feature or it work not properly, please write me in special topic on <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-feature-in-0613-the-embedded-video-instead-of-the-post-featured-image">Support Forum</a>.</p>
<p>See the <a href="http://demo.lp-tricks.com/recent-posts/responsive-grid-light/" rel="nofollow ugc">live demo of this feature</a>.</p>
<p>In version 0.6.4 added new color scheme (both widgets and shortcode) – natural image colors, without any overlay 🙂 If you choose this scheme – add in files lptw-recent-posts.css or style.css in your theme some styles, read more in the FAQ.</p>
<p>Advanced Recent Posts plugin shows the latest posts with thumbnails in two areas:</p>
<ul>
<li>widget in your sidebar</li>
<li>shortcode in any place of your post or theme.</li>
</ul>
<p>Customization of the plugin is wery simple an flexible:</p>
<ul>
<li>Widgets are configured into Dashboard -> Appearance -> Widgets</li>
<li>Shortcodes are configured in plugin shortcode builder, you will see it in the admin menu of your WordPress</li>
</ul>
<p>There are two predefined color schemes (for Basic and Grid layouts): dark and light, but you can set up your own scheme. Or use natural images.</p>
<p>Better to see once than read a hundred times – see the <a href="http://demo.lp-tricks.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">live demo</a> on my website 🙂</p>
<p>Like my plugin? Please, rate 🙂 ★★★★★</p>

<p>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.</p>
<p>Check out a brand new plugin inspired by this one: <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mini-loops/" rel="ugc">Mini Loops</a></p>
<p>I’m bad at support (not intentionally). If you have questions: check the forums, then check <a href="http://trepmal.com/plugins/advanced-most-recent-posts-mod/#comments" rel="nofollow ugc">my blog post’s comment thread</a>. If that doesn’t work, post to the forums (there are awesome volunteers out there!) and get my attention by pinging me on twitter <a href="http://twitter.com/trepmal" rel="nofollow ugc">@trepmal</a>.</p>
<h3>Options</h3>
<p>Widget’s options allow you to change your recent posts list displaying.</p>
<h4>Title:</h4>
<p>Your recent posts widget’s title on your sidebar.</p>
<h4>Title Link:</h4>
<p>The page the title should link to.</p>
<h4>Hide Post Title:</h4>
<p>Check to hide post title in output. useful for thumbnail-only displays</p>
<h4>Separator:</h4>
<p>The character to use to separate the title from the excerpt.</p>
<h4>After Excerpt:</h4>
<p>What should appear after the excerpt</p>
<h4>After Excerpt Link:</h4>
<p>should the ‘after excerpt’ text link to the post? useful if ‘after excerpt’ read like “read more…”</p>
<h4>Show:</h4>
<p>The post type to be displayed.</p>
<h4>Number of posts to show:</h4>
<p>How many posts to display</p>
<h4>Excerpt length (letters)</h4>
<p>You know that</p>
<h4>Thumbnail Custom Field Name</h4>
<p>If you want to display the thumbnail of your posts via a custom field, write its name.</p>
<h4>Height – Width</h4>
<p>Images size.</p>
<h4>Get first image of post</h4>
<p>If you don’t want to use custom field, plugin will get first image from your post content.</p>
<h4>Get first attached image of post</h4>
<p>Plugin gets first attached image of post.</p>
<h4>Default image</h4>
<p>If post has no image, plugin display this image. Ex: http://www.yakupgovler.com/default-image.png</p>
<p>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.</p>
