[Plugin: Special Recent Posts] How to set number of posts

I just registered to reply to you.

Try: post_limit=”1″

Here’s my whole shortcode:

[srp widget_title=”Recent Posts” widget_title_hide=”yes” thumbnail_width=”240″ thumbnail_height=”262″ post_limit=”3″ post_content_length=”300″ tags_include=”Featured” string_break=”READ MORE” date_format=”D M Y” layout_mode=”multi_column” layout_num_cols=”3″]

Tellme,

I tried your shortcode example and couldn’t get it to work. It still showed me the same post settings. I even tried stripping it down to just a few commands. Is there something I am missing?

Can you point me to a shortcode list for SRP?

I am using the free version. Does that have something to do with it?

Treybo ,

try this

<?php
// Defining widget options.
$args = array(
    'srp_number_post_option'  => 5,   // control number of post.
    'srp_orderby_post_option' => 'rand',
    'srp_thumbnail_option'    => 'no'  // yes for thumbnail.
);

// Function call.
special_recent_posts($args);
?>

I have a similar issue with the posts, except my problem is that it’s ONLY showing 5, even when I have that option not written in the shortcode. Basically, I have my blog on a side page and I want to paginate it, but it’s only showing the 5 most recent posts with no pagination..
