- Change YOUR-BLOG/SITE-URL with the url address of your site/blog
- Save your widget. And youre done.
Customizations:
- To disable the scroll bar, remove the number 500
- By default, this widget is set to display a maximum of 8 recent posts. To change this number, replace the number 8 with the number of posts desired
- if you want only the posts titles to appear, change true to none and "0" from padding-top:0px with 10
