## Description

I use a WordPress site to keep notes on a variety of subjects, they are organised
as parents / children. I needed a simple way to show them in a nested list that 
reflected their hierarchy. So I wrote this plugin to do just that.

Once installed it addes a widget that will allow you to select which post type to
display. It’s generally handy if you have hierarchical custom post types or a lot
of deeply nested pages. On the front end, this adds a script to load in the post
list asyncrously – this lets your website load first without having to worry about
pulling together the list of all your posts. Onec the site is loaded, then all the
posts will load. Another resource saver for you – the posts are organised into their
hierarchical order client side. This means the server just spits out an array of
posts and sends them to the visitor’s browser. Once they arrive the visitors browser
will do the work of orgaisaiton.

## Installation

The usual – FTP the files into `/wp-content/plugins/` then activate in the admin.

Or – search ‘post hierarchy menu’ in the add plugins secrion, install and activate.

Now it’s intalled, go to apperance -> widgets and you should see a fancy new widget
sitting there ready for you to use!
