The Display Pages Shortcode was written to allow users to easily display listings of pages without knowing PHP or editing template files, it is based heavily on the [display-posts] shortcode by Bill Erickson.
Add the shortcode in a post or page, and use the arguments to query based on tag, id, post type, and many other possibilities (see the Arguments). I’ve also added some extra options to display something more than just the title: include_date, include_excerpt, and image_size.
See the <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query" rel="nofollow ugc">WordPress Codex</a> for information on using the arguments.

This plugin extends <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-posts-shortcode" rel="ugc">Display Posts</a> by letting you break your content down by month or year. You can use all of the <a href="https://displayposts.com/docs/parameters/" rel="nofollow ugc">Display Posts parameters</a> to customize the query.
Month Listing
<pre><code>[display-posts display_by_month="true" posts_per_page="999" title="Posts by Month"]
</code></pre>
Use the <code>display_by_month</code> parameter to break it down by month. To list all your content, use a high <code>posts_per_page</code>, like 999. You can also add an optional <code>title</code> to appear above the listing.
Year Listing
<pre><code>[display-posts display_by_year="true" posts_per_page="999" title"Posts by Year"]
</code></pre>
Use the <code>display_by_month</code> parameter to break it down by year. To list all your content, use a high <code>posts_per_page</code>, like 999. You can also add an optional <code>title</code> to appear above the listing.

If you’re a developer, you can use the following filters to customize the markup:
