## Beskriuwing

The _Query Posts_ widget was written to allow users that don’t know their way around
PHP to easily show posts in any way they’d like. It’s like having a cool WordPress
developer as a friend ready to do your bidding. Seriously.

The widget has over 40 options to choose from. You can list posts by category, tag,
custom taxonomies, author, date, time, name, or anything you can imagine. You can
choose to show the full content, excerpts, or even a simple list. You can order 
the posts in all sorts of ways. Oh, and you can even show pages.

This is the widget that keeps users out of the code and gives them the ability to
display items on their site how they want.

## FAQ

  Installation Instructions

 1. Upload `query-posts` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the _Plugins_ menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to _Appearance > Widgets_ and place the _Query Posts_ widget where you want.

More detailed instructions are included in the plugin’s `readme.html` file.

  Why was this plugin created?

End users sometimes want to do complicated things but don’t nave the technical _know-
how_ of seasoned developers. This creates a massive barrier between users that can
have _really_ cool sites and those that have to use what their theme developer gave
them.

This plugin is about removing that barrier.

  How do I set it up?

There’s not a lot of work you have to do. Just add the widget to your theme’s widget
area(s). If anything, you’ll probably be overwhelmed by the myriad of options. I’ve
included a handy guide on what each option means with supplemental reading material.
Just check out the `readme.html` included with the plugin download.

### 󠀁[Mostly works, but uses deprecated calls & not compatible with PHP7, abandoned](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mostly-works-but-uses-deprecated-calls-not-compatible-with-php7-abandoned/)󠁿

This can get the job done in a pinch, but the plugin is not updated or supported
any longer and has the above mentioned issues. Best to look for a more up to date
plugin to fill this job.
