0.30.3

• Bugfix release, fixes current category for post/page

0.30.2

• Improves 'current category' detection.
• Adds categorypage parameter to widget

0.30.1

• excerpt - Fixed default excerpt behaviour from previous release. By default it will strip html tags as it always did. If you want it not to strip tags, you'll have to use excerpt_strip=no. Added a new parameter to have a consistent excerpt. If you want to overwrite WordPress' excerpt when using the plugin and generate one the way the plugin does when there's no excerpt, use excerpt_overwrite=yes.

0.30

• Adds ability to exclude tags.
• Changes excerpt. Since lot of users have asked for it, I once again modified the way the excerpt is shown. It now respects your theme's allowed HTML tags and doesn't strip them from the excerpt. If you want to strip tags, use excerpt_strip=yes.
