Hi Darren,
Maybe this plugin would be useful for you?

It doesn’t do the job I want. I used the Savvii Custom Post plugin to create a post type called Updates. I want to then show the last 3 posts created under updates but the Recent Post Widget Plus plugin only allows me to limit by category, not custom post type.
Hi Darren,
I have just released version 1.1 of the Recent Posts Widget Plus plugin, it now allows you to choose a custom post type 🙂
Note that you will have to make the content_block post type public if you want to use it in the widget by adding the following code to your function.php file:
function filter_content_block_init() {
$content_block_public = true;
return $content_block_public;
}
add_filter('content_block_post_type','filter_content_block_init');

Please let me know if this helps!
That’s perfect! Thanks so much 🙂
Just one feature request, would it be possible to have the post date display also?
Yes, that would definitely be possible. Could you please open a support ticket about it on the plugin’s support forum?
