category | No default. Required. Enter the slug of the category you'd like to use. |
custom_field | Default is the option set above, if not empty. Otherwise, ignored. |
title | Default = h3. Can be any HTML tag name (b, i, u, h4, etc) |
numberposts | Default = 1. This is the number of posts that are called in. |
class | Default = post. You can choose another class, for example, one controlled in your own theme's stylesheet, instead. |
sidebox | Empty and ignored by default. If set to "true", puts the posts in a box floating at the right side of the page. |
sideboxsize | Empty and ignored by default. Only used if sidebox is set to true. Then, default = "small". Other options are: medium, large, xlarge. |
content_style | Default = option set above. To override the default, set to one of these other options in the shortcode: excerpt, title. |
separator | Default is a comma (,). Only used if content_style is set to title. |
cols | Default = 1. Only other option is 2. |
col_item_height | Empty and ignored by default. Only used if cols is set to 2. Then the default = 260. |
showthumb | Empty and ignored by default. If set to true, then the post thumbnail is displayed before the post. The image has the class attachment-thumbnail, so you can style it. |
order | Default is ASC. Can be set to DESC. Used only when a custom field is set. |
