Overview
The website of the brazilian newspaper O Estado de São Paulo has a nice way to
display news in a retrospective-style (check this
screenshot
or this link
— Flash required).
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could display WordPress posts in our pages and
categories in the same way just by using a shortcode? The possibilities are
many. That’s why I wrote the Retrospective plugin for WordPress.
It has at least two advantages over the version you just saw:
- Does not require Flash (its implementation uses only CSS and jQuery)
- Has a option to respect the (time-)scale of the posts.
See Installation for more info on how to use it.
