Latest Posts by Author with content

Latest Posts by Author with content shows a list of an author’s newest posts. Each item has the post title, a short preview of its content and a “Read more” link.

Use it in a post, page, widget or theme template:

[latestbyauthor author="username" show="3"]

• author – the author’s username. Use commas for several authors: author="anna,ben". Inside a post, it defaults to that post’s author.
• show – number of posts, 1 to 50. Default: 5.
• length – characters of content to show. Default: 200.
• excerpt – true to also show the post’s manual excerpt. Default: false.

In a theme template: <?php echo do_shortcode( '[latestbyauthor author="username" show="3"]' ); ?>

On a single post, that post is left out of the list. Only published, public posts are listed.
