This plugin helps you create a series of posts. It creates a new taxonomy named ‘series’ (can be modified via filter, see FAQ). There is no setting needed for this plugin. Once it is installed, assign posts you want to group as a series via post editor.
The plugin also creates a posts navigation on posts that belong to a certain series. See screenshots for the examples.

Easy Post Series

Works beautifully and doesn't have a sucking frontend design, as other similar plugins do!

Very good!

Simple Course Creator lets you group WordPress posts into courses using a custom taxonomy, then automatically displays a linked list of all posts in the same course within each post’s content.
Features
<ul>
<li>Create unlimited courses from the Posts menu — just like categories and tags</li>
<li>Assign posts to a course from the edit post screen or the manage posts screen</li>
<li>Display the course listing above content, below, or both</li>
<li>Choose between numbered list, bullet list, or no list indicator</li>
<li>Sort the listing by date, title, author, last modified, comment count, or random</li>
<li>Style the current post in the listing as bold, italic, or strikethrough</li>
<li>Optionally collapse the listing behind a toggle link (JavaScript)</li>
</ul>
Post Meta
Show author and publish date beneath each item in the course listing. Both are enabled by default and can be toggled from the settings page.
Front Display
On the blog home, archive pages, and search results, indicate that a post belongs to a course. Enabled by default and can be toggled from the settings page.
Customization
Style the course box, post meta output, and front display indicator directly from the WordPress Customizer — no custom CSS required. For deeper customization, override the plugin’s template files in your active theme.
Create a directory called <code>scc_templates</code> in the root of your active theme and copy any files from the plugin’s <code>includes/scc_templates/</code> directory into it. Theme files take priority over plugin files.
