Blog Summary produces a semantic, hAtom-enabled list of latest blog entries with excerpts, dates, and comments links that is generated with the shortcode [blog-summary] on any post or page. Shortcode attributes are available to customize the output as well as specify number of entries to show.

Blog Summary is the easiest way to show the latest blog entries on a static page, marked up in the hAtom microformat and utilizing the semantic class funtions when the Sandbox (or Sandbox-based) theme is active.

Blog Summary is for WordPress 2.6.x and features:

  • Out-of-the-box function using shortcode without editing any files
  • Advanced shortcode attribute parsing for easy and complete customization
  • Highly semantic XHTML in the hAtom microformat
  • Integration with Sandbox (or Sandbox-based) class-generating functions
