Hi @richesio,
Alright, please follow these instructions:
#1 Place a Text widget on your sidebar and set its title as Trending.
#2 Paste the following shortcode inside the Text widget and save changes.
[wpp range='last24hours' post_type='post' thumbnail_width=484 thumbnail_height=272 wpp_start='<ul class="wpp-list wpp-list-with-thumbnails">' wpp_end='</ul>']
The only thing in there that you may want/need to adjust is the range parameter so its value matches what you’re currently using with the widget (on the widget you’ll find it as Time Range). The range parameter accepts the following values: last24hours, last7days, last30days, all, custom (see Parameters for more details).
If you have any further comments/questions please let me know.
Oh, there’s one more parameter that you may want to use @richesio: limit. By default the shortcode will pull the top 10 posts, you may want to tweak that as I think it was previously showing 5 posts? For example:
[wpp range='last24hours' limit=5 post_type='post' thumbnail_width=484 thumbnail_height=272 wpp_start='<ul class="wpp-list wpp-list-with-thumbnails">' wpp_end='</ul>']
Ah perfect.
I checked the GitHub link and was able to pull through posts from certain categories too.
