Any chance you would know how I could integrate the_content into this as well?
if you want to do that, you need to edit my plugin. my plugin only displays the titles.
Thanks for the reply. I figured there would be some plugin editing, but I’m not sure… I tried doing something like this:
if($posts){foreach ($posts as $post){
$post_title = stripslashes($post->post_title);
$post_link = stripslashes($post->ID);
$post_date = stripslashes($post->post_date);
$post_content = stripslashes($post->the_content);
//$output .= $before . $post_date . $after;
$output .= $before . '' . $post_title . '' . $post_content ;
$output .= $after;
}
But to no avail… do you know what I might be able to replace “the_content” with?
I just tried posting a reply with what I tried but I’m not sure how to add PHP to the comments form – looks like it just swallowed my comment.
I tried editing your plugin by adding something like
$post_content = stripslashes($post->the_content);
and then adding $post_content to the $output but to no avail.
Any chance you’d know what I’d need to plug in for “the_content”?
Thanks so much for the reply!

[Comment ID #25715 Will Be Quoted Here]
perhaps there is a plugin could do that. try looking at the wpplugin website.
Thanks Fauzi! I was looking for this, since wp_get_posts does not have an offset parameter!
You wrote that one should put in the theme file. WHICH theme file?
You wrote
“There are two parameters that you can use to change the behavior of this plugin.
$min – The minimum number of posts to count. Default is 10;
$max – The maximum number of posts to count. Default is 15;”
WHERE? Can this be accomplished by just using parameters in
? or do I have to edit wp-previousposts.php?
Thanks.
You wrote: add to them file. Which (of many) theme file?
owh…put the tag in your index.php or in sidebar.php. save and upload to your server.
thanks for the great plugin. Simple, but it does want I need.
you are welcome. :d
hi there,
there’s a little flaw in line 32:
if($bil > $min && $bil
should be
if ($bil >= $min && $bil
otherwise the most recent post doesn't show for $min=1 :).
but fixing that was easier than writing it all by myself, so thank you very much for that plugin :).
Thanks for the plugin, it is very cool. Is there a way to put a space between the article names? I am new to php. Thanks
Open the plugin file, in line 14 and 15, you can set your own method on how the plugin will display the article title. The default is <li> </li>. But you can change to <br /> or something else.
Thanks for a great plugin.
Is there a way to not have the post names descend on the next line if the name is too big (perhaps just have a … at the end instead?).
Right now this plugin will not truncate long title. But I will inlcude it in next version. Thanks.
How come I cannot display more than one of the most previous posts? Thats odd. Hard to enjoy the plugin if you ask me
You’d think a little gratitude was in order for anything that comes free with WordPress, if you can’t enjoy the plugin, frankly, no one cares.
Please people, remember that these guys are writing and sharing these plugins out of the goodness of their hearts; showing that you’re appreciative is more likely to keep it this way than sarcastic scoffing.
