AZ Ajax Universal Listing is an Elementor widget for displaying posts and supported event post types in flexible listing layouts. It updates content such as events or posts on the current page without a full reload, improving the browsing experience and helping reduce unnecessary server load. For supported event post types, the plugin also improves single-event navigation by ordering Previous Event and Next Event links by event-start meta instead of normal WordPress publish chronology. This helps event navigation follow the real event timeline.
Features include: 
* Cards, List, and Minimal templates 
* AJAX number pagination 
* optional post filtering 
* posts and supported event post types 
* event date, time, and location output 
* responsive desktop, tablet, and mobile layout behavior 
* typography and display controls inside Elementor 
* pagination alignment control 
* List layout fixed-height presets

This plugin will provide a new widget in the Widgets Section, so you can easily add it in any widgetized area of your theme.
With this widget you will be able to list pages or posts or any other post-type, filtering them by terms of categories, tags and any other active custom taxonomy. You can add filtering by Custom Meta Field value, and decide how to order the list. 
You can also choose to display only Title, or to add Thumbnails, Excerpts and Date. Or you could display only the image with the details on rollover!
Its scope is very similar to the default Recent Posts widget, but you’ll have tons of options and you can use it for any post-type and taxonomy.
Now you can also set the max width of the thumbnail, and the excerpt length, so the listing can display nicely even on larger widgetized areas.

</ul>
Also, the plugin is structured to allow easy overriding of the output template. 
Just duplicate the file pbytax-template.php that you’ll find within the plugin subfolder “templates”, and put it in your theme folder.
You can also take advantage of a few useful filter hooks (see FAQ)!
the widget is built with a very little css styling, in order to adapt perfectly in any theme. though, if you want to style it up, all the html elements have been named with specific classes, to allow easy targetting in your css file.
if you’d like me to add a new feature to the widget, please let me know by writing a post in the <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-list-pages-by-custom-taxonomy" rel="ugc">support forum</a> , and hopefully I will add it to the next version of WP List Pages by Custom Taxonomy.
