详情介绍:
[postlist id="123"] shortcode, or the classic widget.
What can you build?
- Year/month archives — posts grouped under date headings
- Category, tag or custom taxonomy indexes — with or without each term's posts listed underneath
- Author and user directories — list users by role, with avatars, bios and each user's posts
- Filtered post lists — any post type, filtered by status, taxonomy terms, custom fields, dates, authors, parents and more
- Media lists — image and attachment lists by mime type
- Posts
- Terms
- Users
- Terms + Posts
- Users + Posts
- Post type, status and mime type
- Search keyword
- Include/exclude posts by ID, exclude the current post
- Filter by parent, author, taxonomy terms (tax query), custom fields (meta query) and dates (date query)
- Items per page, with multi-page pagination
- Year, month, or month + year
- Category, tag or any custom taxonomy
- Author
- Parent
- ID, title, slug, publish date, modified date, menu order, comment count, custom field value, or random
- Next/previous links or numeric navigation, with optional AJAX page loading
[post_title], [post_permalink], [featured_image], [post_author_name] and [post_meta key="..."]. Start from a preset and tweak it, or write your own markup for pixel-perfect control. If you want a drag-and-drop visual builder, this plugin isn't that — it keeps you close to your own HTML, which is exactly why themes and developers like it.

/wp-content/plugins/. - Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu.

常见问题:
How do I display a list?
Three ways: add the W4 Post List block and pick your list; paste the shortcode [postlist id="123"] into any content; or add the W4 Post List widget to a widget area. Each list's ID and ready-made shortcode are shown in the Shortcode column on the All Lists screen.
How do I list posts from a specific category?
Create a Posts list, open the Posts: Tax Query section, and select your taxonomy and terms. You can combine multiple term filters, and filter by custom fields and dates the same way.
Why does my list show nothing on the page?
The usual causes, in order: the list is not Published yet; the shortcode ID doesn't match (check the Shortcode column on the All Lists screen); the template is missing its loop tags (a Posts list template needs [posts]...[/posts], Terms needs [terms]...[/terms], Users needs [users]...[/users]); or the query simply matched no items. Opening the list and re-checking the query options usually finds it.
Can I display custom fields (including ACF)?
Yes. Use [post_meta key="your_field_key"] inside the posts loop. Fields stored as plain values (text, numbers, URLs) work best; complex/serialized fields are output as stored.
Can I group posts by year, category or author?
Yes — that's this plugin's specialty. Set Group by to year, month, month + year, any taxonomy, author or parent, and the list renders grouped sections with headings. The core Query Loop block can't do this.
Can I list users or build an author directory?
Yes. Use the Users list type (filter by role, order by name/registration date) or Users + Posts to show each user with their latest posts. Template tags cover avatars, display names, bios and profile URLs.
Does it work with the block editor and block themes?
Yes. The W4 Post List block renders your list server-side with a live preview in the editor, and the shortcode works in classic editors, page builders and template files (echo do_shortcode( '[postlist id="123"]' );).
Where is the documentation?
In your admin: W4 Post List → Documentation (template tags reference, examples, usage). Online: w4dev.com/docs/w4-post-list.
更新日志:
- New: Added a WordPress Playground blueprint that powers the Live Preview button on the wordpress.org plugin page.
- Fix: Documentation examples used unregistered template tags ([post_link], [group_name], [group_link]) and invalid HTML, so copy-pasting them produced broken output. All examples now use registered tags with valid loop markup.
- New: "Getting Started" documentation tab with a step-by-step walkthrough, now the default tab.
- Fix: The Documentation page is now visible to everyone who can edit lists (previously required the delete_users capability, hiding it from Editors).
- Fix: The "Include users" and "Exclude users" fields were incorrectly described as taking term IDs; corrected, along with a typo cleanup across admin field descriptions.
- Fix: Added missing text domain to the Appsero opt-in notice string.
- Improved: Rewrote the wordpress.org listing for accuracy — removed the reference to the retired TinyMCE button, repositioned the description around grouped lists and user directories, expanded the FAQ from real support questions, updated screenshots and fixed typos.
- Improved: Plugin header description.
- Note: No functional changes in this release.
- New: Post status options now include all registered statuses, including custom ones (e.g. "Expired" from job listing plugins) - https://github.com/w4devInc/w4-post-list/issues/88.
- Tested up to WordPress 7.0.2.
- Tested up to WordPress 6.9.1.
- Fix: Sanitized media image width and height attributes - https://github.com/w4devInc/w4-post-list/issues/64.
- Fix: Fixed version number.
- Fix: Fixed textdomain issue. See changelog of all versions.
