Configuration

1. Provide a widget title
2. Provide the standard WordPress attributes (categories, tags and authors) and custom fields to be used in the widget
3. Select the template file from you theme to be used to show posts list. By default, the search.php template is used. You can chose to create a specific template. For exemple, with the default WordPress themes, you can copy search.php to browse.php and remove the line that display the message “Search Results for:”.
   A browse.php sample file is provided in the sample directory.

Customize the posts list

As explained just before, you can create a dedicated template file in your theme based for example on search.php. This template is in charge to implement the WordPress loop.

<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
…
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
…
<?php endwhile; ?>

Customize the widget display

The widget uses the template files template/mssbc_default.php and template/mssbc_default.css.

You can implement your own template by copying theses two files as mssbc_custom.php and mssbc_custom.css. These two new files can be located in the widget’s template directory or in your theme’s main directory.
