Posts in Page

1. 

   Embed a shortcode into a page, and it will automatically pull in the post(s) you need.

2. 

   Embed shortcode using a Gutenberg shortcode block.

3. 

   Embed shortcodes directly in your template using do_shortcode.

What is the point of this plugin?

Posts in Page makes it easy to output or embed the posts, pages, or custom post types in any page without modifying WordPress theme templates.

Does it work with Gutenberg?

Absolutely. Just use a Gutenberg Shortcode block or the Classic Edit block to add your shortcode.

Wait! The posts aren’t styled like the posts on the rest of my site.

That is likely true. Currently, Posts in Page doesn’t output any styles; just some basic markup. To change how the posts appear on the page, you’ll need to change the output template.

How do I change the output template?

Simply copy the posts_loop_template.php to your theme directory and make changes as necessary.

You can even rename it – but make sure to indicate that in the shortcode using the template='my-new-template-name.php'.

For file housekeeping, you can also create a posts-in-page folder in your theme to store all of your custom templates. It isn’t necessary to specify the posts-in-page folder in your shortcode – Posts in Page will find it automatically.
You can even use multiple templates for use with different shortcodes.

Does it work with custom post types?

Absolutely.

Does it work with custom taxonomies?

You bet.

Will it make me coffee?

Not likely, but let us know if it does; then we’ll know we have something special.

How can I help?

We’d love feedback, issues, pull requests, and ideas on the Posts in Page GitHub repo.
