In reply to: [List category posts] link_target = blank doesn't bring new page to frontYou should use link_target=”_blank”, notice the _ there. You’re using just “blank”, so it’s opening a new Window (or tab) which the browser identifies as “blank” and then opens following links.
The parameter must be “_blank”, with the underscore before the word.
Thanks for using the plugin!

In reply to: [List category posts] content_limit short code option?Yes, please read the documentation. Most of your questions are answered there and in the FAQ.
You need to add excerpt=yes to that shortcode so that you can display the excerpt.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [List category posts] content_limit short code option?You can use the excerpt option for this anyway:
If you don’t have an excerpt in your post, the plugin will fetch this text from the content, striping its images, shortcodes and HTML tags. The limit is set by the excerpt_size parameter (55 words by default). If you want the automatically generated excerpt to respect your theme’s allowed HTML tags, you should use excerpt_strip=no. If the post has an excerpt, the HTML tags are automatically stripped. If you want to overwrite the post’s excerpt with an automatically generated one (may be usefull to allow HTML tags), use excerpt_overwrite=yes. I added this last parameter to have consistency across excerpts.
excerpt_size – Set the number of words to display from the excerpt. Default is 55. Eg: excerpt_size=30
Let me know if this helps!

In reply to: [List category posts] After last updateThe other topic has a different problem, not with order by random.
I found this might work by adding this:
remove_all_filters('posts_orderby');Since I can’t reproduce the issue, could you please edit the plugin on your WordPress instalation and see if this fixes it? Edit include/CatList.php and on line 153 add the code I wrote, so it would look like this:
remove_all_filters('posts_orderby'); $query = new WP_Query;Forum: Plugins

In reply to: [List category posts] Exclude Categories in Widget doesn't seem to be workingI’ll check this out, seems like the widget could use some more work…
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [List category posts] Any way to get rid of bullet point?Yes, you just have to style the CSS. Unless you’ve specified a CSS class for the plugin, this should work:
.lcp_catlist li{ list-style: none; }Add this code to your theme’s CSS.

In reply to: [List category posts] After last updateI haven’t been able to reproduce this issue. Did you install a caching plugin or similar?
I’m using a widget on my development box selecting “Random” on the “Order by” field, and the order of the posts is random. I also checked with a shortcode and it’s still working as expected.
What other parameters are you using?

In reply to: [List category posts] list category plugin fails randomlyAviBadash please bear with me, I’m just one person working on this plugin and I have a full-time job and a life as well.
jsmith3753 what’s the shortcode you’re using?
Something looks pretty bad on that page, it takes really long to load. Are you using any cache plugin? Would it be too much trouble to ask your hosting company to check out what happens on the server when you load that page?Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [List category posts] in Post not recognizedHave you tried deactivating every plugin and activate List Category Posts? There might be some conflict there.
I tested your same code and the more tag was respected and the “Read more” link was displayed. There might be an issue with a conflicting plugin there or something similar.
Also, are you using the latest WordPress version?

In reply to: [List category posts] title the image, hide the restNice site!
You want something like this:
<img src="..." title= "Eye Chi" >
Right?This should be on the a tag that wraps the thumbnail:
<a href="post_url" title="post title"> <img src="..." alt=""> </a>I am adding this right now and it will be available on the next update!
