Posts in Posts will allow you to grab recent posts based on category, tag or just recent posts. Then it will display thoses posts in a list in the post or page you have called the Posts in Posts on. It’s as easy as all you need to do is write a HTML-esq bit of code.
[posts type=”category” name=”Lipsum” limit=”4″ date=”d-m-Y”]
This will then output 4 posts from the category ‘Lipsum’.
