  • Display a single post, page or any available post type.
  • Display full content or the excerpt, or both!
  • Category descriptions are visible by default, if any.
  • Configure date format, link text or hide them all.
  • Use styles for every block, (refer the stylesheet in locus/control/locus-style.css)
  • Set display post orders, such random, by date, by author, comment count (popularity) etc
  • Display thumbnails, if available
  • Easy to use: you don’t have to learn to use it
  • Settings per widget, so you can have different widgets.
