Description
The plugin is designed to list posts, pages, and custom post types from across entire WordPress multisite network on any given page for any subdomain and the main blog.
If you would like to list all posts in a WordPress multisite installation on any other blog in the network this plugin will do that for you. Let’s say you want to list the posts from all blogs or selected blogs on the main site you may do so with pagination or limit the amount of posts. You may also list the main blog in a multisite installation on any sub blog. You may list posts from blog1 and blog2 on blog3 or the main blog. Any combination is possible. This makes a perfect WordPress Multisite Posts listing plugin. You may also filter the listing anyway you desire by title keyword or category. Even custom categories.
7.7.1
Added two parameters. hide_post_date_meta_info and (these both must be used together) wrap_post_date_start & wrap_post_date_end so you may customize the post date. For example wrap_post_date_start=’
‘ wrap_post_date_end=’
‘. If you want to hide the post date information altogether you can set hide_post_date_meta_info=’false’. Default is ‘true’.
7.7.0
Just confirmed compatibility with the latest version of WordPress.

Add three new attributes wrap_source=’true/false’. Default is true but when set to false all items will be at same level for better arranging of items via css. show_author_avatar=’true/false’. Default is false. Shows the members default avatar. author_avatar_size=’x’ where x is the size in pixels. So if you enter 16 the avatar will be sixteen pixels wide and sixteen pixels high.
7.6.6
Added new attributes main_title= which acts like the older title= but includes wrap_custom_title_start/end so you may wrap the title with additional HTML. Plus the ability to give the title a custom link using main_title_link=’custom-url’.

Installation
Frequently Asked Questions
There are two answers to this question. 1) You have include_blog='1' inside the shortcode. Simply remove this. 2) The other blogs are not setup as public. When you go in to network admin area and visite sites > (any subsite) > edit you will see a list of four checkboxes. Make sure the one marked public is checked. If a site is marked as private, spam, etc… anything other than public this plugin will not show it (as it shouldn’t for security reasons).
You may network activate the plugin so it is available on all sites or activate individually. When network activated there will be a new menu for the plugin under settings > Network Posts Thumbnails which will allow you to give certain permissions to blog owners when it comes to the thumbnail sizes. You may allow to create new sizes just on their blog or across the entire network which will affect everybody. I recommend only to allow it for their blog only. This allows you to also include it as a custom feature if you want to charge for this capability.
Yes, use include_post= and put in your posts in comma separated format surrounded by double quotes. Example include_post='5,78,896'.
You may shorten it using the argument title_length='10' will rounded it off to the last complete word before it reaches 10 characters.
Use the following arguments: random='true' and list='10' will show ten different posts randomly whenever the page is loaded. If you add list="15" it will show fifteen different posts randomly.
Yes you may give specific ordering of your posts or pages via alphabetical order (by title), by date or page or post ID specific order.
Yes it now does as of version 0.1.4. You may list via page/post id or via taxonomy='custom woocommerce category'. Woocommerce default directory/taxonomy is product show you would just use the argument taxonomy='Product' which is the title of the directory. (Not case sensitive)
Note: Also works with Tips and Tricks eStore plugin.
Yes it will including the following argument: include_price='woocommerce' or include_price='estore'. If for some reason you have both plugins installed you would use include_price='estore|woocommerce' if you want to list them both.
That is because since double quotes are used after the = sign they must be changed to single quotes and use double quotes in the html. For example you would have to have wrap_start='<div style="color:blue;">'. Notice the double quotes in the html Do not forget to change the closing argument to wrap_end='</div>'
Yes it now works with custom post types.
Yes you can by using the following argument full_text='true'
You can use them directly as a featured image or you can install the plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/featured-image-from-url/ and put in the link directly to the images. This plugin will automatically switch to the one listed here. Don't forget to change size='H,W' to the dimensions of the featured image.
Using css I have made this plugin very flexible. It now contains two default layouts. Their names are "default" and "inline". You may choose either one by using use_layout='default' or use_layout='inline'.
Yes you may now use the shortcode attributes in a url. Example: http://localhost/wordpress/home-page/?column=infinite&include_blog=1,2,3&taxonomy=wordpress-develop,second-posts
Paste the shortcode on any page, post or custom post type using the Text not the Visual area of the posts editor field.
Use the default WordPress text widget and post the code in there under the Text not Visual code area so it will not mess with the shortcode. This widget is now automatically shortcode ready. No need for a special widget or plugin to activate shortcodes in widgets.
As long as you use the Advanced Custom Fields Plugin it will be possible to do so. Read the readme.txt file for arguments to add to the shortcode.
Yes you now can with the following two arguments. 1) taxonomy_offset_names=” and 2) taxonomy_offsets=”. So for example if you wanted to offset three different categories it would look like so: [netsposts taxonomy_offset_names=’books,flowers,sports’ taxonomy_offsets=’5,4,10′] then books would be offset by 5, flowers 4, and sports 10. To offset by tags include the following argument: taxonomy_offset_type=” so it will now work with tags. As of now the only argument it accepts are category, or tag, or any. So if you want to offset by certain tag you would add taxonomy_offset_type=’tag’. Default it offsets by post type when argument is not used.
Add the following argument: remove_blog_prefix='true'.
No it will not but you may get the single site version here: Single Site Posts Extended
You may do so using the following argument: order_by_acf='field_name asc/desc' but only use asc or desc depending on the direction you would like. It works both numerically and alphabetically.
You do so with the following parameters. 1) main_title=’List of Blogs About Bikes’ main_title_link=’https://mysite.com/my-bike-page/’.
