  • undervalued plugin!

    This plugin is completely undervalued, as it is the only plugin who can make a list of your posts by a search query, what is very usefull for any kinds of websites. i use it in several of our magazines and it does the job very well, by showing the posts to a specific keyword or string. perfect for magazines like mine. i was searching several weeks for a plugin like this and almost hired a dev to programm it, before i found this plugin. it saved me alot of work and money and is a game changer for magazines like mine. Maybe the dev should edit the description of this plugin, so its more easy to find. it works well with the recent version of wordpress and i am very happy.
