<p>Use a shortcode to display your posts.  Display them by tag, number of posts, order (asc, desc), orderby (date, time created, none, ID, author, title, parent, rand), pagination (pages), and display the results in one column or two.</p>
<p>Intended to be used with object caching (memcache) for maximum efficiency.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>[Display Posts tag=’a tag’ pages=’true’ posts=’7′ order=’desc’ orderby=’date’]</p>

<ul>
<li>Category name. Add multiple categories separated by commas. (Note: Using cat and tag will increase query load dramatically)</li>
</ul>

<h4>pages</h4>

L7 Display Posts

This plugin is very efficient.  Updates object cache when post is saved or updated so user never hits an empty cache.  Great for sites with huge numbers of posts and high traffic.



I use it on my site.

Efficiently show posts by tag or category using a simple shortcode.  Utilizes caching for greater speed and fewer database calls.

<p>The plugin “Paged Post List Shortcode”  adds the shortcode [list_posts_paged] for showing your posts or articles with pagination. It provides options that control which posts to show, what info to show for each post, and how many posts to display per page. You can style the HTML output using CSS.</p>
