JS Archive List

Since version 6.0 the widget was migrated to a Gutenberg block. So there will be a Gutenberg block with the most modern code and compatibility and a legacy version that is 100% made in PHP to keep compatibility with older installations.

By support experience, like 99% of problems are due to:

• There’s a Javascript error caused by other plugin, and it stops any further code execution, check your browser’s logs to find the problem and deactivate the conflict plugin.
• Your template doesn’t have a wp_footer() function, this plugin requires this function to load JS code at the end of the website to improve speed.

Currently, there’s no function in WP API for getting link for date archives when using custom permalinks. So, you’ll need to modify/hack the source code to support your custom link structure, you can do this by changing the lines where I call get_month_link and get_year_link.

This plugin only shows the posts from included/excluded categories. It does not remove them from the navigation. If you want to do it you have to install a 3rd party plugin like Ultimate Category Excluder or Simple Exclude Categories

Yes, select ‘Empty Space’ as trigger symbol and Save, then you can add any custom background using CSS,
just play with the widget’s classes: .jaw_symbol, .jaw_year, .jaw_month.

Yes, just add the JS Archive List block or add a shortcode block and write [JsArchiveList] anywhere inside a post
or page’s contest and it will be replaced for the archive list when rendering the content. You can add the following
parameters to change its behavior:

1. showcount ( boolean ): select if you want to show the count post inside that month/year.
2. showpost ( boolean ): show post’s titles under months.
3. expand (“none”, “never”, “expand”): never expand by default, current year only and always expand.
4. month_format (“short”, “full”, “number”): the format of the date.
5. ex_sym: the expansion symbol.
6. con_sym: the collapse symbol.
7. only_sym_link: only expand/collapse when clicking the bullet.
8. effect (“”, “slide”, “fade”): the JS effect to implement.
9. exclude: IDs (comma separated) of the categories to exclude.
10. type: ID of the type of the posts to show, this is if you’re using custom type posts. By default will show posts.

So for example:

[JsArchiveList month_format=number showpost=1 showcount=1 ex_sym=+ con_sym=- effect=slide type=page]

Will show a widget with months as numbers, show posts under months and their count, the symbols are + and – and the effect is fadeIn. You can check source code for more information.

By using it, recommending it to other users, giving it 5 starts at plugin’s WordPress page, suggesting features or coding new features and finally by DONATING using plugin’s website’s donate link.

Since 2.0 you can add as many instances as you want, but there’s another way to do it, just add a new Text widget only with the shortcode [JSArchiveList] then it will have a new copy of the widget.

Since 2.0 it’s possible. Each instance has its own configuration. Shortcode widgets are controlled by shortcode attributes.
