<p>This plugin gives you <code>[query]</code> shortcode which enables you to output posts filtered by specific attributes. You can format the output to your liking and even display the results in a grid of customizable columns and rows.<br />
Also supports “lenses” which can turn your query results into Tabs, Accordion, or Carousel widgets. This feature relies on Bootstrap library to be already loaded on the page, the plugin does <em>not</em> include it (for that you can use the <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bootstrap/" rel="ugc">Bootstrap plugin</a>). You can create new lenses or override the built-in ones in your theme to customize the output.</p>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<p>You can use all parameters supported by <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query" rel="nofollow ugc">WP_Query class</a> to filter the posts; you can query for specific post types, categories, tags, authors, etc. You also have to define how you want to format the output:<br />
    [query posts_per_page=”5″ cat=”3″]</p>
<h3><a href="{URL}" rel="nofollow ugc">{TITLE} ({COMMENT_COUNT})</a></h3>
<p>[/query]<br />
The above shortcode will display the title of the latest 5 posts from the category with the ID of 3. Available keywords are: TITLE, CONTENT, AUTHOR, AUTHOR_URL, DATE, THUMBNAIL, CONTENT, COMMENT_COUNT and more to be added later.</p>
<h4>Grid display</h4>
<p>With the “cols” parameter you can display the output in a grid. So this:<br />
    [query posts_per_page=”3″ cols=”3″] {THUMBNAIL}</p>
<h3>{TITLE}</h3>
<p>{CONTENT} [/query]<br />
will display the latest 3 posts in the defined template, in 3 columns. If in the above snippet we set the posts_per_page option to 6, it will display the latest 6 posts in two rows that each has 3 columns.</p>
<h4>Lenses</h4>
<p>With the “lens” parameter you can display the query results in a Tab, Accordion, or Carousel widget. Example:<br />
    [query posts_per_page=”0″ post_type=”faq” lens=”accordion”]<br />
This will create an accordion widget of all our posts from the “faq” post type. This creates a carousel of latest five featured posts:<br />
    [query posts_per_page=”5″ featured=”true” lens=”carousel”]</p>
<h4>Other supported parameters</h4>
<p>Aside from wp_query parameters, the shortcode also supports additional parameters:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>featured</em> : to query for sticky posts which by default are excluded from the query.</li>
<li><em>thumbnail_size</em> : to specify the size of the {THUMBNAIL} images. You can use <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_image_size#Reserved_Image_Size_Names" rel="nofollow ugc">built-in image sizes</a> or custom ones you’ve defined.</li>
<li><em>content_limit</em> : to limit the number of words of the {CONTENT} var; by default it’s “0” which means it outputs the whole content.</li>
<li><em>posts_separator</em> : text to display between individual posts.</li>
</ul>

<p>Based on development by Bill Erickson (http://www.billerickson.net/shortcode-to-display-posts/). We have added support to multisite in order to be capable of reading any other blog in the network.</p>
<p>The <em>DeMomentSomTres Display Posts Shortcode</em> was written to allow users to easily display listings of posts without knowing PHP or editing template files and extendend to take the maximum profit from a network install with multiple blogs.</p>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<p>Add the shortcode in a post or page, and use the arguments to query based on tag, category, post type, and many other possibilities (see the Arguments). I’ve also added some extra options to display something more than just the title: include_date, include_excerpt, and image_size.</p>
<p>Add the parameter blog_id to change the network instance number.</p>
<p>See the <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query" rel="nofollow ugc">WordPress Codex</a> for information on using the arguments.</p>
<p>The parameter metaorderby allows to order based on a metafield or customfield value. The parameter metaorderbynum does the same but considering the values as numbers.</p>
<h4>History & Raison d’être</h4>
<p>A customer of us needed a multisite website to implement multiple languages and she was using <a href="http://demomentsomtres.com/english/wordpress-plugins/demomentsomtres-language/" rel="nofollow ugc">DeMomentSomTres Language Plugin</a>. Although they could have many blogs they didn’t want to keep 3 blogs informed. However they wanted to show the blog in all the subsites. So we build this plugin allowing to show blog content from other sites in the multisite installation.</p>
