   Take a look at the code on the default template included as an example.

   The main variable is $output, where you should load all the information you want to display.

   This is a new loop, what you see there is the code for how each of the posts will be shown. The example is using an unordered list (<ul>), but you can use headers, tables, whatever you like.

   These are some common functions you might want to use:

   Get the link to the post:
   get_permalink($single->ID)

   The title of the post:
   $single->post_title

   Author:
   get_userdata($single->post_author)
   To get the info. Save it into a variable like "$lcp_userdata", and then display it with:
   $lcp_userdata->user_nicename

   Get the excerpt:
   $single->post_excerpt

   Hope this helps. I'll add some of this info on the FAQ for future releases.
