Category Show

It’s an easy way to show and order all posts from category/tag into a page/post. Really handy for showing your tutorials, articles, etcetera.
It shows as a list(

• ) so it will apply your blog style-sheet as you wish.

  Note: If the selected term(category or tag) has a description, it will be shown in a

  tag.

  To see it in action click here.

  Usage:

  1. Go to Category Show’s options page and generate the tag.

  2. Insert your new tag into your post.

  Tags to know:

  If you want to apply some CSS, those are the tags you should know:

  ,
  • , and

    Output example:

    title
    
    

    That’s it!

Can I use it inside others HTML tag, such a table?

Yes. In version 0.3.1 was fixed a limitation that made impossible to do such a thing. So always use the latest version.

Can I use it more than one time per post?

Yes. Anytime you want. But remember that Category Show doesn’t have page support yet, it will be in its next versions.

When is going to have page support?

Page support is coming for 0.5.
