No es necesario realizar consultas personalizadas o llamadas a bases de datos para obtener una lista de entradas recientes. De hecho, hay una función integrada en WordPress que hará precisamente eso. Se llama, wp_get_archives(). Puede que la reconozca como una forma de mostrar los archivos mensuales, pero con unos pocos parámetros, puede modificarla para mostrar una lista de entradas de WordPress publicadas recientemente. Aquí está el código:
<?php wp_get_archives('title_li=&type=postbypost&limit=10'); ?>
Esto eliminará cualquier formato añadido por WordPress y mostrará una lista de las 10 últimas entradas, cada una dentro de su propia etiqueta <li>.
I use the WordPress Twenty-Eleven theme and have always displayed recent posts using the widget in Jetpack. But I want this list to show in the individual posts as well. Is there a way to do this?
Muchas gracias!!!! Thank you very much!!!! Just what I was looking for!
Saludos desde Spain 😉

Thanks! That solved my problem in 2 seconds.
Thanx Leland – just in the nick of time
*Love ur site btw 😀
M.?
I’ve implemented it on my about page here: http://www.webdesign-bureau-of-mauritius.com/web-design-mauritius
It works like a charm. Thanks for this!
Can you also tell the system to display the excerpt for the post? or just a teaser?
Okay. All this code does is display a very simple list of recent posts. The markup is similar to this:
<ul><li><a href="http://example.com/recent-post-3">Latest One</a></li>
<li><a href="http://example.com/recent-post-2">2nd Latest Post</a></li>
<li><a href="http://example.com/recent-post-1">3rd Latest Post</a></li>
</ul>
If you want anything else (thumbnails, character counts, whatever) that would require a custom loop and I can’t really go over each specific case in the comments here.
How do I do this and also have thumbnails? Very small thumbnails. 35px X 35 px. Google is annoying me sending me round in circles all day long. They’re useless lol.
Well I await your useful reply.
Thanks.
Oh wow this is easy 😀 Thanks for this great article!
BTW, has anyone come across functions to merge both recent post and page update in chronological order?
How about displaying recent posts, together with a set number of characters from the actual entry?
Awesome bit of code! Only took me two years to find it. xD
LOL…better late than never.
Hi How do I make the list have the url’s inside Header tags?
Thanks
I need to exclude posts from a certain category, how could be done?
You’d need to make a custom loop and exclude the category. See the query_posts page for more info.
Thanks, this helped me a ton. 🙂
How can I do this with categories ?
You mean a list of categories or a list of posts from a certain categories?
For a list of categories you could use wp_list_categories.
For a list of posts from a certain category you would probably need a custom query. How to do that would need a new tutorial post entirely, but this should get you started.
clean and simple. Cheers for the code
@Corey: Not with this code, you would probably need to make a custom loop for that.
THANK YOU!!!! been wrestling with several recent post plugins but there was always something needing to be configured, edited, etc finally can remove all of the extra garbage needed to make them work
Can you put time and date to this? If so how?
It’s just working fine for me. Thanks for this excellent hack 🙂
Thanks! Just what I needed 😉
eh thanks.
what should I do to add a header to the lists?
thanks again.
Thanks a bunch, worked beautifully!
How about a version where you exclude certain categories from the recent posts? this function doesn’t allow the exclusion of categories. I am using it inside the loop before the call for the actual post title in a lefthand sidebar and found that the other version of a custom database query fed the last post title into the main post the_title(). If I use the version you supplied then it doesn’t feed the wrong title to the post but I can’t exclude a few custom categories that feed my news and portfolio.
This is perfect! Exactly what I needed to show the most recent posts in a church website’s main page design. Thanks so much for the tip!
I hope it can works in my blog
