Mimbo 2.2 – Recent Posts Widget showing Pages, not posts

    I can’t give a link to my site because it’s hidden behind the maintenance mode plugin, so hopefully I can describe my problem enough here for someone to help. ??

    I’m modifying the Mimbo 2.2 theme and I just noticed that the Recent Posts widget is acting properly when on the blog page, but when on a Page, it isn’t showing the recent posts. Instead, it is showing the name of the Page you’re on with a link for it.

    I’ve searched through the forums and can’t figure this one out. Can someone give me a hint on what I should be looking for? Or let me know what you need to see and I can post the relevant code.

    TIA!

    Update:

    Using a widget, I’ve added the following code to make the recent posts work:

    <?php wp_get_archives(‘type=postbypost&limit=5’); ?>

    I got that here.

    It’s working fine. But I’d really love to add the date for each post. Do you know of how I can do that with the get_archives tag?
