<p>Retrieves posts (or pages) with a certain custom field (e.g. to permanently show your <strong>most recommended posts</strong> in a widget) and displays them in a list. The plugin uses a custom field named <em>must-read</em> if it exists in a post or a page. If the field exists in a page or post <strong>and</strong> has the value <em>true</em>, the post automatically will be shown in the widget.</p>
<h4>What’s new</h4>
<p>2.0.2: Stripping HTML tags from titles (thanks, Reinaldo!)<br />
2.0.1: Several sorting options added, check out the widget configuration area.</p>
<h4>Use it as a Widget</h4>
<p>If your theme supports widgets, simply drag it to your sidebar. You can specify the maximum number of posts to be shown in the widget. You can also change the widget’s title to something like “Most recommended posts”, “FAQ”, “Read first” or whatever you like.</p>
<h4>Use it in a .php page</h4>
<p>Just put <code><?php get_mustread(); ?></code> in your template. You could even use it within your posts or pages using the <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/exec-php/" rel="ugc">Exec-PHP plugin</a> that allows you to put php code fragments directly into the text. This allows you to create a static page or a post showing your most recommended posts. The get_mustread function takes 4 <strong>optional</strong> arguments: title, maximum number of posts to be shown, name of the custom tag, sort order. Optional means you don’t have to specify any parameters if you don’t need to.</p>
<h4>Marking a post or page to be included</h4>
<p>If you’re using the plugin for the first time, click “Add new custom field” to add the field name <em>must-read</em> and insert <em>true</em> in the value field of the page or post you want to be shown in the new widget. Once you want to display an additional post in the widget, just select it from the custom field drop-down box and insert “true” in the value field.<br />
If you don’t want the custom field to be named <em>must-read</em> you can also change it to something else. The custom field value always has to start with <em>true</em> for the page or post to appear in the list.</p>
<h4>Custom sort order</h4>
<p>The plugin features several self explanatory sorting options. You can also specify a custom sort order. Just add a semi-colon and a sort-number after <em>true</em> in the custom value field. The field value for your 1st post would be <em>true;01</em> and the 2nd field would like <em>true;02</em> and so on. This gives you full flexibility over the positioning of your posts or pages in the Must-Read-Posts list. If you mix sorted and unsorted posts or pages, the ones with no number will be sorted first. If you have a bunch of posts or pages that you just want to sort at the end use something like <em>true;99</em> on all of them to move them at the end of the sort order.</p>
<h4>Remove a post or page from the Must-ReadPosts list</h4>
<p>To remove a post or page from the Must-Read-Posts list set the custom-field-value to <em>false</em> or remove the custom-field from the post or pages.</p>

<p>Gallery Custom Links allows you to link images from galleries to a specified URL. Tested with WordPress Gallery, Gutenberg, the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/meow-gallery/" rel="ugc">Meow Gallery</a> and others. The official page is here: <a href="https://meowapps.com/gallery-custom-links/" rel="nofollow ugc">Gallery Custom Links</a>.</p>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<p>Two fields are added to your images, in your Media Library: Link URL and Link Target (but also, Link Rel and Arial Label). If, at least, the Link URL is set up, this image will link to that URL every time it is used within a gallery. Lightbox will be automatically disabled for those images.</p>
<p>To do this, the Gallery Custom Links needs to analyze/rewrite your content. Depending on your WordPress, you can pick the most appropriate method (known as engine).</p>
<ul>
<li>HtmlDomParser: Very reliable. It will rewrite your HTML so that the links are hardcoded.</li>
<li>DiDom: Same as HtmlDomParser but faster. However, your HTML needs to be perfectly valid.</li>
<li>Javascript: This is the fastest, but the links won’t be hardcoded. Only the visitor will experience the links.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Compatibility</h3>
<p>It currently works with the native WP Gallery, the Gutenberg Gallery, and the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/meow-gallery/" rel="ugc">Meow Gallery</a>. It should actually work with any gallery plugin using the ‘gallery’ class and Responsive Images (src-set). Let me know if you would like more galleries to be supported, it should be easy.</p>
<h3>Filters</h3>
<p>You can optimize (run the plugin only on the pages where you need it) and support more galleries (through CSS classes) easily by using filters. To know more about this, visit the official page, here: <a href="https://meowapps.com/gallery-custom-links/" rel="nofollow ugc">Gallery Custom Links</a>.</p>
<h3>Thanks</h3>
<p>The motivation to build this plugin came from my users who had issues trying to use WP Gallery Custom Links. I realized that this plugin was working extremely well with the standard gallery, but would require too much rewriting for Gutenberg and other galleries, hence the creation of this plugin. I hope it will help.</p>
