## Description

These must be in function.php in the theme for the plugin to work for thumbnail 
and excerpt:

add_theme_support( ‘post-thumbnails’ );

set_post_thumbnail_size( form_option(‘thumbnail_size_w&&echo=false’), form_option(‘
thumbnail_size_h&&echo=false’), true );

function custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
 return 20; } add_filter( ‘excerpt_length’,‘
custom_excerpt_length’, 999 ); function custom_excerpt_more( $more ) { return ”;}
add_filter( ‘excerpt_more’, ‘custom_excerpt_more’ );

You’ll also need to add thumbnails to the posts you want visible in the list.

After that, all you need to do is to add the hook [getcatlist 1] (where 1 is a categoy
id) to your post.
