Postrix – Recent Posts Widget

Postrix lets you display a filtered list of recent posts anywhere on your site: in a sidebar widget, as a Gutenberg block, or via shortcode.

Filters

• Post Type — posts, pages, or any public custom post type
• Category — include or exclude by category ID
• Tag — include or exclude by tag ID
• Author — include or exclude by author ID
• Order by date, random, or menu order

Display options

• Number of posts and offset
• Show/hide thumbnail, date, author, excerpt
• Prioritize sticky posts
• Automatically exclude the current post when viewing it

Three ways to use it

• Classic widget (Appearance > Widgets)
• Gutenberg block (“Postrix – Recent Posts Widget” in the block inserter, under Widgets)
• Shortcode: [postrix_recent_posts number="5" post_type="post" categories="3,12"]
