Although there exist numerous WordPress plugins for integrating the latest posts into pages this new Simple Latest Posts Shortcode Plugin was created to specifically serve those people who just want to have a single line of shortcode in order to display the latest posts in their blog. Nothing more, nothing less.
And yes, there also will be a settings page for the plugin in the administration area of you WordPress just in case you want to customize the way the plugin behaves. This plugin is inspired by the Simple Random Posts Shortcode WordPress Plugin that I released earlier. Based on the great feedback via mail I’ve decided to add this Simple Latest Posts Shortcode Plugin too.
