<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>

Now you can just drop them in your posts and change the look easily via the options.</p>
<h3>Options</h3>
<p>Should be self-explanatory.</p>
<p>The advanced features: Please be careful with the HTML parts.<br />
The archive-format setting “options for dropdown-menu” is for people who want to setup forms. You have to add a proper form yourself – with select/post and all. Then this feature will add all archives (in the type you chose) as </p>
<h3>TODO</h3>
<ul>
<li>add products tag support<br />
Probably like this:<br />
$args = array(<br />
    ‘number’ => 15,<br />
    ‘taxonomy’ => ‘product_tag’<br />
);<br />
return $args;Theoretically functional: from WP 1.5 (most features from: 2.5. “separator”-option from 2.9, “Tags-Order” for tags feature only from 3.5)</li>
</ul>
