Will this work with IE10 and 11?
Im confused by what this does. I have a basic one page wordpress site with no blog page created, can I use this plugin to create a standard blog index with posts like in your demo?
Hi,
I am not sure how your one page WP site works but if you have separate pages what you can do is place a sidebar in one of the pages and drop the Smart Post Lists widget in it. That should do it. 
OTWthemes
Yeah I can figure out how to get a sidebar/widget on the page but if I drop this in the widget does it also produce the blogroll/blog index with all the blog posts?
Hi, When you select all the categories you get a list of all posts. Then you can arrange the list by date. Every time a new post is added it will appear on top of your lists.

I just purchases and installed this plugin. So far so good. However, is there any way that I can select “pages” as Post Type? I have numerous pages I want to display in the list, and would prefer not to switch them over to posts.
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
The plugin supports posts and custom post types and taxonomies. It currently does not support pages.

Does the plugin has the ajax pagination for posts.?
Hi, the plugin does not support pagination sorry
I’m a bit confused since the ‘demo’ shows various blog post styles under Blog menu section. Is this strictly a sidebar widget display or does it have shortcode displays as well for showing blog posts in various formats in the content area?
Hi, it is just a widget but you can easily put it in any page content area: http://otwthemes.com/how-to-create-widget-areas-no-coding-required/

All the links except for the one related to your own plugin are to plugins that were abandoned years ago. But thanks for the info.
Any plugin that can create sidebars and place them in the page content are will do the job. Or you can always code your own

Hi, Great plugin! Is there anyway to add a class for the widget title in option ?
Thanks
Hi, there is a class for the title . You can also add a custom class for the whole widget so you can style each widget individually if you want to.
OTWthemes
Thanks for the quick answer, is it a built in class or i can add it manualy as for the widget ? My theme generate css according to the category that why i need to manualy add it to suit my need for the title and read more link.
Thanks
For the title it is a build in class. For the widget you can have your own.

Thanks,
I’ll buy it by tomorrow…
Hi there,
Last question does it support sticky page ?
Thanks a lot, Fabienbxl
Hi, it is a widget, it can be dropped in any sidebar.
Cheers, OTWthemes
Sorry i wasn’t clear enough. What i meant is can I filter post as per tag by sticky post in order to only show sticky post in the widget.
Thanks
Hi, What the widget supports are categories, tags, authors when we talk about posts. If we talk about custom post types it supports all custom taxonomies.

Is it responsive friendly ?
Because when i try to make the screen smaller, the posts that are horizontal in one line, they are appearing to go united, kind of messed up. Any ideas of fixing that?
Hi, the plugin currently does not support responsive lists.

our website is translated to greek, but the dates in the psots lists are in english. how to translate them?
Is there a way to order posts in a list in a random question. in case that isnt clear, lets say a particular tag has 5 articles. I want the list to display the 5 articles in a random order, is that possible?
Yes there is Random option to order posts.
Pre-sale question: Can you make a custom list based on posts’ ID’s? Thanks
Hi,
You can make lists based on categories, tags (custom taxonomies) and authors. The plugin doesn’t have id selection. What you can do is tag your posts and then make the selection based on that tag.

Post-purchase question. I’m surprised that your plugin doesn’t have shortcodes. Trying to find some support docs in your website, but nothing. Your links to create custom widget areas are broken. What I need is to create a custom posts lists in my home page (not in a sidebar), so let me know how to do that. Thanks
Hi,
The widget can generate post lists only when placed in a sidebar.
Here is how to create a sidebar and place it in your page content area: http://otwthemes.com/how-to-create-widget-areas-no-coding-required/Where are the links broken? Can you please tell me so I can check them out?
The documentation for the plugin is located in the Documentation folder that is in the plugin package you download from CC.

Question.. do you have to use featured images or will it pull the first image in the post?
I just tested the light version and will not pull any of my images… oh well.
Hi there, the widget pulls the featured images from your posts. Please send access to your installation via the contact form on our profile page so I can take a look: http://codecanyon.net/user/OTWthemes#contact

How Can I Increase Space between image and text I use left in excerpt like this http://www.asset2day.com/
Hi,
This needs some custom CSS. Every list you create with the plugin has a css class for each element of the list. You can try adding the space to .image-left-in-excerpt. Open the Firebug inspector to discover the html/css structure of the list.

Pre purchase question. I’m using Learn Dash LMS with Sahifa Theme. I would like to know if your widget can work with the custom type “course” from Learn Dash. Thanks.
Hi there,
The plugin has not been tested with Learn Dash. But if they use default WordPress ways for creating the custom post types & taxonomies you should not have any problems.

Pre-purchase question …
I run Woocommerce on my site. Will this plugin allow me to display related products on a post (filtered by post/product tag matches) and also allow to display related posts on a product page (also filtered by post/product tag matches)?
i.e. when on a blog post, display products that relate (by tag) and when on a product page, display blog posts that match (by tag)?
Thanks in adance …
Hi,
The plugin can create list of posts based on selected categories, tags, authors. It does not have a related post options. If you place the widget in a sidebar of a certain category archive then you can select the same category for the list that you are creating.
Here you can see the list of options that the widget provides.
