<p>Clean Archives Reloaded generates a list of all of your posts, sorted by month. It’s enhanced with Javascript to allow collapsing and expanding of months.</p>
<p>It’s highly efficient and won’t kill your server with tons of MySQL queries.</p>
<h4>Demo</h4>
<p>Check out one of my sites’ <a href="http://www.finalgear.com/post-archives/" rel="nofollow ugc">archive page</a>.</p>
<h3>Shortcode Tag Parameters</h3>
<p>You can customize the list options on a per-call basis if you wish.</p>
<ul>
<li><code>usejs</code> — (<code>1</code> or <code>0</code>) use Javascript or not to collapse the months</li>
<li><code>monthorder</code> — (<code>new</code> or <code>old</code>) show newest months or oldest months first</li>
<li><code>postorder</code> — (<code>new</code> or <code>old</code>) show newest posts or oldest posts first within months</li>
</ul>
<h4>Examples</h4>
<p>No Javascript:</p>
<pre><code>[cleanarchivesreloaded usejs="0"]
</code></pre>
<p>Oldest months first, oldest posts first:</p>
<pre><code>[cleanarchivesreloaded monthorder="old" postorder="old"]
</code></pre>


Clean Archives Reloaded

A slick, Javascript enhanced post archive list generator.

Heath Harrelson

<p>This widget is designed to be a more compact alternative to the default archives widget supplied with WordPress. If you’ve been blogging regularly for several years, the archive list produced by the default widget grows to be quite long. If you use Flexo Archives instead, the list will be displayed as a much smaller list of years. When you click a year, it expands to show the months of that year when you posted. By default the expansion is animated.</p>
<p>A standalone version that simply prints the HTML for the archive lists and attaches the JavaScript to normal pages is now provided for users who cannot use the widget.</p>
<p>I am currently seeking translations of the plugin. If you would like to help by translating the plugin into your language, <a href="https://wordpress.org/tags/flexo-archives-widget" rel="ugc">please post to the support forum</a>.</p>
<p>Thanks to Dylan van der Heij for providing a Dutch translation.</p>
