Alright!
Can you please mark the thread as *solved* then?

@sparksintexas You can use specific parameters to the shortcode (e.g. [catlist ... catlink_tag=h3]).
Please, have a look at the documentation on HTML & CSS customization.

@tony the sure fire fix would be to use CSS.
As an example, you can define a bit of CSS:

.lcp_catlist li a {
  font-size: 1rem;
}

You can try several sizes in place of 1rem (which stands for 1 time the size of an element defined at the root container of the page): percentages (e.g. 200%), element-relative (e.g. 2em) or even points (e.g. 20pt) and pixels (e.g. 32px).

Please note that this style will be applied to every list you generate with the plugin. You can select specific lists by setting a custom class ([catlist ... class=example_class]). Then, replace the .lcp_catlist by .example_class in the aforementioned code and upload your new CSS.

If you don’t want plugin updates to wipe off your changes, then don’t modify files inside of the plugin directory. WordPress allows you to specify custom CSS for your theme.

@marepomana86 could you please edit your original post to type differently the <li> tag?
This tag is allowed as part of your message, so if you type it as it is, you will create a new list item. You can add some spaces in it, or type it in a code wrapper (between backticks).

It’s OK now.
Using the embedded inspector in my browser, I can see that the image default styling is width: 100%; (set in style.css).
This causes an issue as the image is inside a list item, which is displayed as an inline element taking all of the available horizontal space.

You have to set the thumbnail style to width: auto;. Maybe with a custom class?

Well, are the thumbnails displayed? I don’t see them on the page.

If you don’t want to mess up with your already online site (and you shouldn’t), please provide the generated code here or via another service (e.g. Pastebin or Pastie).

Can you inspect your page’s HTML?
I am specifically thinking of the class of the thumbnails and of their styling attributes.

What happens if you use the ‘thumbnail’ size?

[catlist name="Chibi" numberposts=5 thumbnail=yes thumbnail_size=thumbnail]

Could this be related to a personal template?
Or did you both used the plugin as-is?

Hello,

Some issues have been filed indicating a breakage in the template system.
If you are willing to help, please have a look at the git repository.

I sincerely hope somebody will be able to take care of the template system too. I don’t have enough time at the moment to help the author on this.

Hello,

either you write your own template (see the documentation, section Template System), either you specify a date format with a hyphen in it (see how to format date and time in WordPress/PHP).
For example: [catlist date=yes dateformat="- Y/m/d"]

The reason is that you have a styling block at the end of your header (<style id="op_header_css" type="text/css">...</style>). In it, the list items of the content area are targeted (#content_area li) and the font color is set to a dark grey (#444).

You have to determine why this styling block is here, who put it there (or which plugin), and then how to 1) move it, 2) restrict its targets or 3) add another styling block specifically for your purpose.

Here are some download links:

• version 0.62 (current version)
• version 0.61
• version 0.60.1
• version 0.60
• version 0.59.2

Yes, it seems that the code changes about “the loop” are breaking the template system.
Sorry, I have not investigated this system at all.

Can you roll-back to version 0.60 or 0.61?

Hello,

you have to style the different elements with CSS.
See the documentation and look for title_tag, title_class, excerpt_tag, excerpt_class (section HTML & CSS Customization).
Or, you can make a specific template for your application (section Template System).

There are some threads on this subject, for instance:

• Alignment of thumbnails and titles
• Display thumbnail before category title
