WordPress Plugin: List category posts
One of my client sites that I consult for, CopperTalk (www.coppertalk.org), through Palmer Productions Group has a custom home page with top posts for various categories. I used the List category posts plugin, by Fernando Briano, to accomplish this task.
Soon after a request was made for displaying an excerpt of the latest post from one category as a headline news (Coppertalk News). The displayed content needed to include more than what the post excerpt option supports. Besides, the editors do not use the excerpt option anyway. This looked like a go with the List category posts plugin except for one thing. The plugin does not factor in the <!–more–> tag for cutting off the post on the teaser portion. It was displaying the full post.
