Description
This easy to use WordPress plugin is designed to add a new feature for theme developers. Used on many of my own websites as well as those of my clients, the plugin allows me to quickly add a collection of scheduled posts to any theme element.
The plugin can easily be used by website owners as a WordPress Widget, adding lists of posts to the Sidebar of a WordPress website.
About the plugin
More advanced users can also call the functionality of the plugin from a WordPress shortcode by adding the code [thisismyurl_easy_scheduled_posts] to any Post or Page within WordPress.
Finally, theme authors may also take advantage of the plugin by calling the functionality directly from theme files with the code thisismyurl_easy_scheduled_posts();.
