I haven’t been able to reproduce this issue. What version of WordPress are you using? What version of the plugin?

Ok allshookup, let me explain to you how this works: This is open source software I do for fun, not profit. It’s like a hobby pet project for me, ok? I don’t get paid for each hour I spend coding on my plugin, I just do it because I like coding and it looks like a lot of people like it and use it, so I feel good by improving the plugin. Support requests in the forum don’t pay my bills, and I haven’t “avoided the issue”, I just focus on bigger issues or new features which are more requested.

So, this specific issue I haven’t been able to reproduce. I use the plugin on all of my blogs and I’ve tried several different setups, and I always get the plugin to show the number of posts I ask it to. So it must be specific to some WordPress installations. Maybe a conflict with another plugin, I don’t know.

ramshengale I don’t use “” for this parameter and it works, maybe that’s the issue. I’m using this exact code:
[catlist id=259 numberposts=6 orderby=title order=asc]
And it works as expected.

What WordPress version are you using? Maybe try setting debug=true on your wp-config and see if there’s any important errors displayed.

floand there’s no reason to get depressed 🙂

Now that you have your plugin installed, just use the shortcode when editing or adding a new a page or post. Write it in the post’s text and that’s it.

You have to add a CSS class to the title with the title_class parameter. Then edit the title_class class in your theme’s CSS file. Something like this:

In the post:
[catlist id=3 title_class=lcp_title numberposts=1]

And in your theme’s CSS:

.lcp_title{
  display: none;
}

Uh, this is bad. What version of WordPress are you using? What’s the code?

Can you set debug=true on your WordPress installations and check for warnings or errors related to the plugin?

But what is it showing? Does it show the whole excerpt, part of it or no excerpt at all? Do note now the parameter counts the number of words to display from the excerpt not the characters.

This one is pretty specific… I think there could be a way to get the title from some custom field. For the moment this is not possible, but I’ve added it as a feature request for a future release.
