Description
Ever want to list your WordPress posts in an easy-to-read, sortable data table? This plugin makes it easy to do just that. It supports post thumbnails, custom post types, custom taxonomies, and (as of v4.0) custom fields.
By default, the plugin outputs the following columns:
Post Thumbnail (if enabled)
Post Title
Post Date
Post Categories
Post Tags
Options include:
Omit any of the default columns
Replace
Post
with a custom post type
Replace
Categories
and
Tags
with custom taxonomies
As of version 4.0 you can insert any number of custom field columns
How To Use
[sorttablepost]
Place this shortcode into a post or page to insert a sortable table of all posts.
Hide Standard Columns
[sorttablepost nothumb=”true” notitle=”true” nodate=”true” nocats=”true” notags=”true”]
You can omit any undesired columns by using one or more of these shortcode options.
Show Custom Post Type
[sorttablepost type=”my-custom-post-type”]
You can specify the name of a custom post type (or
page
), instead of showing posts.
Use Custom Taxonomies
[sorttablepost cat=”my-custom-taxonomy” tag=”another-custom-taxonomy”]
You can replace the standard
Categories
or
Tags
columns (or both) with custom taxonomies.
Use Custom Fields
[sorttablepost meta=”Custom Field Key,Another Custom Field Key,Yet Another”]
As of v4.0, you can add as many custom field columns as you like. Use a comma-seperated list of field keys.
Assign Unique ID to Table
[sorttablepost id=”mytable”]
As of v4.2, you can give each table a unique ID. This is particularly useful when displaying multiple tables on the same page, as it allows you to style each one differently.
