Dizze plugin **is net hifke mei de lêste 3 grutte releases fan WordPress** . It 
kin net langer wurde ûnderhâlden of stipe en kin kompatibiliteitsproblemen hawwe
as it wurdt brûkt mei resinte ferzjes fan WordPress.

## Beskriuwing

Creates a widget that displays posts and thumbnails in a selected category. Thumbnails
will display 100px square. Author name links to author page (if in use) or list 
of posts. Posts are sorted in descending order by date. This is a fork of [James Lao’s Category Posts plugin](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/category-posts/),
with less options.

Style “thumbcol” and “contentcol” classes to make it look pretty (make the thumb
appear to the left of the excerpt, for example).
