This plugin is great for story tellers which have what to say and most of all, they want to share amazing stories with the world!
The idea of the AINOW plugin is very simple…
You are writing amazing stories for different themes from the world society. But with the time those stories become so many that your readers have lost their path of interest… Some of them even messaged you that your storyline is getting harder for reading…
So you’ve set down and think about what can you do?
The best solution for not losing your readers is to suggest the right stories to the right crowd! But this can be really hard if you had to do it manually… So the solution of this problem is the AINOW plugin which will do this for you, leaving only the great story telling for you!
How it works?
The plugin works really simple. 
You just have to create a new page and put this shortcode – [ainow_list] in its content. 
That will automatically tell the plugin that this page will show your blog posts. 
The shortcode has one attribute in which you can customize the text of the Load More button. It’s load_btn_text and it can be everything that you want it to be!

In the end shortcode looks like that – [ainow_list load_btn_text=”Load More”]

HivePress – Business Directory & Classified Ads Plugin


Lots of good things to say about this theme and the team behind it. They have a wonderful support forum that is very active and responds quickly. If their support doesn't have an answer to something that is more customizable (like custom code), often other members do. I have enjoyed it so much that I am using it on a second website now. Kudos!


Lightweight, fast, easily customizable, active support forum

A simple yet powerful plugin to create a business directory, job board, real estate, classified ads, or basically any type of directory website.
