SidePosts Widget

Author: Jordi Canals

With this widget you select the category you want, and all entries with this category, will be shown on the sidebar instead the main blog. You will have then a small blog on the sidebar for those special entries. For each entry, you have the link to the post page. You can select the number to post to show and if must show only the post excerpt or the full post content (Also excerpt with thumbnails can be shown).

Another option is to set a widget to show only private posts. In this case, private posts are hidden only in the home page and nowhere else. When set to private posts, widget only shows to users with read_private_posts capability (Administrators and Editors).

Also, you have foot links to the category archive and feed (Not for private posts). With this simple functions, you will have a small subblog on the sidebar.

To know how to configure and use, you can read the SidePosts Manual.
