<p>The purpose of this plugin is simple. I want to list recents update of my posts. Similiar to default “Recent Posts Widget” by WordPress, but this one sort the post by last modified time and enable to add a short note about change or update being made.</p>
<p>For example, I maintaince a wordpress plugin (we name it, “Hollydolly Plugin”) and create a post about it on my blog. And because the nature of blog—when new posts are added the older ones are taken down automatically—it’s only a matter of time that post ‘disappeared’ from frontpage and no longer seen by visitor. So, when I release a new version of “Hollydolly Plugin” and updated the old post about it, unfortunately, there is no way I can do to ‘attract’ visitor to read (again) that post.</p>
<p>Right, in the new version of WordPress (since version 2.7) there is an option to make it as sticky post—make it listed on the top of frontpage. But that not my choice. I want to list it on my sidebar and displayed all over my blog. So I create this plugin for that purpose.</p>
