by marcomassimo·1 year ago

Simple to install and a real timesaver!

Excellent tool. First class plugin
by terrycskn·5 years ago

I am using WP Show Post which allows you a lot of control using post id’s.
This plugin makes life easy, adds post id to the posts lists.
One of life’s essential backend plugins.
