Update: Sobek`s Posts in Category plugin v1.7 & v1.8

Sobek`s Posts in Category plugin has now passed v1.7 and arrived at v1.8, so this post summarizes the changes made in both updates

:

v1.8 changes

• Limit the number of posts to display - you can now choose to limit how many posts are displayed by the plugin. To do so use the “limitx” argument in the call eg. to show only five posts you would use: 
  

  <ul><?php sobeks_posts_in_category(‘limit5′,3,4,5,6); ?></ul>

v1.7 changes

• Display the list as ordered, unordered or copmma-separated list - apart from sorting by title or date you can now sort the list by number of comments i.e. the more comments a post has, the earlier it is displayed in the list. Usage:
  

  <?php sobeks_posts_in_category(’orderlist’,4,5,6); ?>

  <?php sobeks_posts_in_category(’unorderlist’,4,5,6); ?>

  <?php sobeks_posts_in_category(’commalist’,4,5,6); ?>

  PS. If you use the ‘orderlist’ or ‘unorderlist’ arguments you do not need to add any <ol> … </ol> or <ul> … </ul> tags around the function call, they are already built in and can be styled using the sobeks_pic class.

Roadmap

We’re slowly arriving at a final release. When announced, further development will be continued as Sobek’s Posts in Category Deluxe version.
