Recent posts in the sidebar but only thumbnail?

  • Hello all

    I have a right sidebar, where I would like to show my latest posts. However I would like to show only a clickable image rather than any kind of text. At the moment I am using a plugin called “Recent posts extended” which adds a thumbnail, but leaves the title of the post below the image. Any idea how to overcome this?

    Many thanks!

  • you might be able to simply hide that title using CSS.

    if you can provide a live link to your site, somebody might be able to help with finding the right CSS; or try using a browser inspectin tool to find out if that widget has its unique CSS selector, which you should be able to use to hide the titles selectively.

    many thanks for your reply!!
    My site is not live yet, I am developing it in localhost.
    I was hoping for a simpler solution, as I want to use the sidebar to show recent posts, i.e. ideally I would not like to edit the code everytime I add a new post..
    thanks anyway!

    no need for that; as you are targetting the widget container’s and widget title’s CSS selectors, you would only once add the correzponding CSS via a custom CSS plugin or via a child theme.
