Individual shortcodes are available for displaying recent posts, posts on categories and tags. It has a feature to display featured image as a thumbnail. Shortcode generator is also available to generate shortcodes according to requirement. Shortcodes for displaying Recent Posts are 1.[bake-post-recent limit=5 excerpt=”no” featured_image=”yes”] 2.[bake-post-recent limit=5 excerpt=”yes”] These two short codes can be used to display recent posts. Excerpt option can be used to display description as excerpt or full content. Featured Image can also be displayed by setting featured_image=”yes” in the shortcode. Shortcodes for displaying Posts on category are 3.[bake-post-category term=’slug’ category=’all’ limit=5 excerpt=”no” featured_image =”yes”] 4.[bake-post-category term=’slug’ category=’all,stories’ limit=5 excerpt=”yes”] 5.[bake-post-category term=’id’ category=’1′ limit=5 excerpt=”yes” featured_image =”no”] 6.[bake-post-category term=’id’ category=’1,2,3′ limit=5 excerpt=”no”] Term values differs from “id” or “slug”. If Slug is used, category value should be category slug values. For example, if your category name is short stories, Slug will be short-stories. We can use multiple slug values seperated by commas.

For example, We can use multiple id values seperated by commas.Featured Image can also be displayed by setting featured_image =”yes” in the shortcode.
