This easy to use WordPress plugin is designed to add a new feature for theme developers. Used on many of my own websites as well as those of my clients, the plugin allows me to quickly add a collection of popular posts to any theme element.
The plugin can easily be used by website owners as a WordPress Widget, adding lists of posts to the Sidebar of a WordPress website.
<h4>About the plugin</h4>
More advanced users can also call the functionality of the plugin from a WordPress shortcode by adding the code <code>[thisismyurl_easy_popular_posts]</code> to any Post or Page within WordPress.
Finally, theme authors may also take advantage of the plugin by calling the functionality directly from theme files with the code <code>thisismyurl_easy_popular_posts();</code>.

Recent Popular Tags WordPress plugin allows the administrator to display the most popular recently used tags by post authors.
This plugin is very valuable for current events websites because it gives admins the ability to set the number of tags to display and how many days to consider as “recent”… No more popular tags displaying from two years ago!
Default Usage
Heading and Recent Popular Tags will be displayed beneath each blog post.
Shortcode
Use shortcode <code>[recent-popular-tags]</code> to display Recent Popular Tags anywhere in blog posts, pages, custom post types or in a text widget.
Template Tag
Use <code><?php if ( function_exists('rpt_display_content') ) { echo do_shortcode('[recent-popular-posts]')} ?></code> to display Recent Popular Tags in your template files
Widget
Use <code>[recent-popular-tags]</code> in a “Text” widget to display Recent Popular Tags in a sidebar

Very useful plugin, I like how it shows more relevant tags than just a bunch of rarely used ones.
