    Hi,

    I am just curious if it is possible to customize your recent posts list in the fashion of http://veerle.duoh.com…? I would like to have something similar to her “Previously” space, where I can list my recent posts but with different colored post-titles and commenting details. I would also like to make each post-title along with its details into one large link.

    Heh. Yeah. Not quite sure if that made sense, but please resort to the link mentioned above for extra aid.

  • Yep, its definitely possible. But you’re going to have to modify your theme files and enclose the title and date tags within the permalink link. As for the colors, you’ll need to wrap the various elements in CSS tags and then style them in your stylesheet.

    Are you familiar with modifying themes? What’s your blog’s url?

    Alrighty then. I’m just confuzzled how I should call for the post-titles and commenting details because when I tried to implement the Customizable Post Listings plug-in, I was unable to modify the elements the way I truly wanted them. And then I read something about custom “loops,” but I think that that’s taking the long-about route. Do you know what I should do to call for my recent posts and their commenting details?

    Also, I can’t really supply a URL because I’m working on my layout locally ^^; I hope that’s not an inconvenience.
