Tonight I wrote a quick (and idiotic) patch to the very simple WordPress Category Post plugin v2.0. This backwards-compatible patch features:
- parameter-based post limit to define how many posts the plugin function will print
- parameter-based format option to output the posts in real
<li>elements
The wp-category-posts.php patch file is available for download here. To apply the patch, run the following commands at your shell promp:
cd path/to/wordpress/installation/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-category-posts patch -p0 < path/to/downloaded/wp-category-posts.patch
I’m hoping this will get integrated as the next version of the plugin, perhaps version 2.1.
