The CC-List-Posts plugin works out of the box. 
There is no settings page for it. 
After activation you can start using <code>wp_list_posts</code> function and/or shortcode with the parameters listed below.
Notice: the plugin can be used with the <code>wp_link_pages</code> built-in functionality if you use <code>pagination</code> parameter with integer value.
<h4>Defaults</h4>
<ul>
<li>before: (string) <ul>,</li>
<li>after: (string) </ul>,</li>
<li>link_before: (string) empty string,</li>
<li>link_after: (string) empty string,</li>
<li>type: (string) postbypost,</li>
<li>echo: (integer) 0,</li>
<li>pagination: (boolean|integer) false,</li>
<li>format: (string) html</li>
<li>type: (string) monthly,</li>
<li>limit: (string) empty string,</li>
<li>show_post_count: (boolean) false,</li>
<li>order: (string) DESC,</li>
<li>post_type: (string) post</li>
</ul>
Notice: plugin uses <code>wp_get_archives</code> function to list posts, so you can also use additional parameters. A full list is available at WordPress <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_get_archives" rel="nofollow ugc">codex</a> page documentation.
<h4>wp_list_posts parameter mapped to wp_get_archives</h4>
<ul>
<li>link_before: before</li>
<li>link_after: after</li>
</ul>
<h4>Default usage</h4>
<ul>
<li>Function: <code>wp_list_posts( array( 'pagination' => 50 ) )</code></li>
<li>Shortcode: <code>[wp_list_posts pagination=50]</code></li>
</ul>

CC-List-Posts

This plugin adds similar to wp_list_pages, missing function and shortcode wp_list_posts with pagination support.
