WordPress Plugin: Get Recent Post
Wednesday, October 31st, 2007This is a plugin that satisfies a simple need in WordPress. A function that returns text from one post (the most recent) for one category. That’s it! 
Save the Get Recent Post plugin to your wordpress/wp-content/plugins directory, then remove the .txt extension. You can see it in action on my site’s front page sidebar, with the “Site News” category.
(Versions of WordPress prior to 2.3 will need to use Get Recent Post 1.3.2.)
Update: New Release! Download version 2.0 of Get Recent Post. This new version will ONLY work with WordPress 2.3.x, 2.5.x, 2.6.x, and 2.7; it is not compatible with earlier versions of WordPress. Please use version 1.3.2 of this plugin for older versions of WordPress.
