### 󠀁[DONT USE V. 0.6.14!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dont-use-v-0-6-14/)󠁿

This has not been tested with the current version of WP! After installing it crashed
my site and would not allow the home page to load. DONT DOWNLOAD

### 󠀁[Can’t touch it or it breaks](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-touch-it-or-it-breaks/)󠁿

 [obsydian](https://profiles.wordpress.org/obsydian/) June 9, 2017

So this widget used to work wonderfully! I’ve had it on my homepage for forever,
but since the recent WP update, if I dare even poke the widget to change the TITLE
TEXT, it breaks. It goes from horizontal to a vertical formation and there is nothing
I can do to fix it but roll back the page to a previous revision. I know it hasn’t
updated in 2 years but I’m desperate for a fix or an alternative. Stressing me out.
I need to change that text.

### 󠀁[Would rather not rely on feature image](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/would-rather-not-rely-on-feature-image/)󠁿

 [rickbsgu](https://profiles.wordpress.org/rickbsgu/) February 14, 2017

I don’t use ‘featured image’. Would rather it just pulled the first image it finds,
if no feature image. A lot of errors, num columns aren’t honored in thumbnail view
and can’t get excerpt in thumnail view (demo shows it.) I like the idea, but I’m
having to hack it to get it to do what I want.
