The website of the brazilian newspaper O Estado de São Paulo has a nice way to 
display news in a retrospective-style (check <a href="http://blog.tiagomadeira.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/estadao.jpg" rel="nofollow ugc">this 
screenshot</a> 
or <a href="http://www.estadao.com.br/especiais/choque-nas-ruas,158638.htm" rel="nofollow ugc">this link</a> 
— Flash required).
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could display WordPress posts in our pages and 
categories in the same way just by using a shortcode? The possibilities are 
many. That’s why I wrote the Retrospective plugin for WordPress.
It has at least two advantages over the version you just saw:
<ul>
<li>Does not require Flash (its implementation uses only CSS and jQuery)</li>
<li>Has a option to respect the (time-)scale of the posts.</li>
</ul>
See Installation for more info on how to use it.

Retrospective

Retrospective plugin displays last posts or posts from a specific category in a nice-looking "retrospective" way using a shortcode.

Tusko Trush

Small addon for ACF Options. Adds ACF location for each custom post type.
New feature in the major version 2! 
Important! 
After update to v2+ you must reconnect Field Groups to Options Pages
Now you can activate/deactivate CPTs and create custom options pages for each CPT. 
By default, options pages are activated for all custom post types.
<h4>Usage</h4>
The default functions of <a href="http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/" title="Advanced Custom Fields" rel="nofollow ugc">ACF plugin</a> (<code>get_field, the_field, etc.</code>) can be used to load values from a CPT Options Pages, but second parameter is required to target the CPT options.
This is similar to passing through a <code>$post_id</code> parameter to target a specific post object.
The <code>$post_id</code> parameter needed is a string containing the <code>cpt_</code> and CPT name in the following format; <code>"cpt_{CPT_NAME}"</code> and for subpages you can copy generated ID while creating subpages.
<h4>Examples</h4>
<blockquote>
In examples Custom Post Type name is <code>projects</code>.
</blockquote>
So, let’s go!
Display a field
<pre><code><?php the_field('field_name', 'cpt_projects'); ?>
</code></pre>
and the subpage’s field
<pre><code><?php the_field('field_name', 'cpt_projects_testpage'); ?>
</code></pre>
Retrieve a field
<pre><code><?php
 $field = get_field('field_name', 'cpt_projects');
 // do something with $field
?>
</code></pre>
Display a sub field
<pre><code> <?php if( have_rows('repeater_name', 'cpt_projects') ): ?>
 <ul>
 <?php while( have_rows('repeater_name', 'cpt_projects') ): the_row(); ?>
 <li><?php the_sub_field('the_title'); ?></li>
 <?php endwhile; ?>
 </ul>
 <?php endif; ?>
</code></pre>
Display with shortcode
<pre><code>[acf field="field_name" post_id="cpt_projects"]
</code></pre>
<blockquote>
Please read documentation about <a href="http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/shortcode/" title="ACF Shortcode" rel="nofollow ugc">shortcodes with ACF</a>
</blockquote>
<h3>Customization</h3>
<pre><code> function cpt_projects_customize($cptmenu) {
 $cptmenu['page_title'] = 'Dev Custom title';
 $cptmenu['menu_title'] = 'Dev Custom title';
 return $cptmenu;
 }

 add_filter('cpt_projects_acf_page_args', 'cpt_projects_customize');
</code></pre>
Don’t forget to replace <code>cpt_projects_</code> to your custom post type name 🙂 
It works only for first level options pages, not for subpages.
