Joy to work with, but with some drawbacks
-
This is the pluging for custom lists in sidebar and footer!
Many settings, flexible views.
Highly recommended!I wish I had opportunity to use it as a [shortcode] to place it anywhere around the page.
ALSO! It is possible to limit the length of post’s title or text to ### words (NOT SYMBOLS), which is weird. In most languages some words are very lenthy, some are real short. That results in funny looking lists sometimes and the plugin doesn’t help much. SO that’s the way to make the pluging a bit better.

Shortcodes – yes, resolved, thank you.
Length in characters – this updated plugin’s feature works and the user interface is very clear and logical, but the shortening itself wors with some glitches on my non-latin titles.
SOME of the shotened titles contain (right before the elipsis) a rhombus with question mark in it, a (possibly) sign of an unrecognized symbol…
At the same time some other shortened titles don’t have that rhombus…
I cannot get the logic yet…
My website is in Russian (UTF-8 charset) So, probably, the code doesn’t check integrity of non-latin characters.
A simple logic could (after getting symbols list) delete symbols until nearest % (or whatever the sign of beginning of a non-latin symbol is in UTF)
Another solution – checking resulting string and deleting that rhombus.I had to revert to “words”…
