Hi Paul,
Thank you for trying the plugin and the question. Below is one way that you could update the theme/custom-templates.php file to create a bulleted list of recommended posts.
Basically you surround the stuff denoted by {kp_*}
with the HTML you want to use. You can also remove any of those tags {kp_*}
that you don’t want to use.
If you want to use the original template, as it appears in theme/templates.php, you leave the value blank such as in the case of $kp_templates["kp_widget"]
.
Thanks again for trying the plugin!
Adam
