Great Plugin!
But, one question:
Is it right that it dosen’t show “private” posts? Ok, when you are not logged in it’s right. But when you are logged in, shouldn’t it show the private ones too?

@Cactus, you might want to check the tutorial linked in the beginning of this post.

@MDS, if you look closely at the end of the post there’s a “live demo” of the plugin which works perfectly, so the answer is “Yes, it works.”

[...] Wem das alles zu unkomfortabel ist, der kann hierbei auf Plugins zurückgreifen. Zum einen wäre dies Category Posts Widget und zum anderen wäre dies Latest Posts by Category Archive. [...]

To match your current time format, as a few examples above didn’t qork for me, here is my solution, thanks to above poster Canton Becker:

{
$mydate = substr($postinfo->post_date,0,10);
$myformat = get_option(‘date_format’);
$prettydate = date($myformat,strtotime($mydate));
$thedate = ‘ – ‘.apply_filters(‘the_date’,($prettydate)).”;
}

Thanks for this plug-in! Is doing the trick for me. Just made a tweak to PHP to change orderby to equal ‘date’ instead of ‘ID’ and it now gives my editors the power to override order as needed. Thanks!

is there a way to change the plugin that would make the plugin work with custom taxonomies?
(display x or all recent posts sorted by category for the zzz taxonomy).

i want to create archive pages for a custom taxonomy i created that are sorted the exact way this plugin does it.

thanks!

Fantastic plugin.
It does exactly what I need.
I have one problem on my ‘thematic’ theme.
I am getting [...] instead of read more per post.
Have I missed something in the instructions or do I need to dip into code?
I have the following applied in my functions.php applied which might be causing conflict?

function excerpt_ellipse($text) {

return str_replace(‘[...]‘, ‘Read more »‘, $text);

}

add_filter(‘get_the_excerpt’, ‘excerpt_ellipse’);

Any guidance much appreciated

Is it possible to have multiple instances of this plugin. I have it setup, it works beautifully, but I would like another instance of it on my homepage. How can this be done, as WordPress is only allowing me 1.

I just found this blog while looking for a plugin and here I am looking around.
I am now back on this page so as to keep this comment in topic..
I think the “Latest posts by category” plugin would be perfect if it included an option to have little pics next to the title of the post…also this page would be great if you had the “subscribe to comments” thingy so I could come back here to see if you ever updated this plugin with the pic option… but I know I am suggesting a lot, but I don’t expect anything and I thank you for what I have and I thank you greatly for this useful plugin!

@Alex, Blogsessive:

Any idea when this mysterious ‘sometime nextweek’ might actually ever happen?

Been 15 months so far.. I knew time was relative, but that’s a little overboard. lol
