    hi hector,

    i noticed that your plugin shows a warning that the plugin is deprecated and it is recommended to replace it with the wordpress popular posts block or the wpp shortcode.

    since i work with elementor, i can’t use the widget anymore. so all i really have left is the shortcode.

    i copied your code from another post and unfortunately i don’t get it to display as before because i use your plugin as a page and not as a sidebar.

    could you please help me to adjust the shortcode so that the page still looks like before?

    the upper part on my test page is your shortcode. the lower part is how it always looked before.

    thank you very much in advance
    greetings sergio

    Alright, please try this:

    .elementor-shortcode .wpp-list li {
    margin-bottom: 20px;
}

    Adjust the margin as needed ??

    As a final recommendation for the day -it’s late here and I need to go to bed haha- since you’re using a plugin to lazy load your site’s images it might be a good idea to either turn off WPP’s own lazy load implementation (WP Dashboard > Settings > WordPress Popular Posts > Tools > Thumbnails > Lazy Load) or have your lazy loading plugin exclude images with the class .wpp-thumbnail. Don’t have two (or more) plugins/scripts do the same thing(s) or else almost always some kind of conflict will occur (in your case, thumbnails may fail to load sometimes).

    Well, the Elementor team surely get a ton more support requests than I do so that’s probably why they take longer to respond (and I just happen to monitor this forum a few times per day so I don’t miss anything :P)

    Nonetheless, I do appreciate you taking your time to share these kind words so thank you!
