The plugin no longer works. It lists all the posts alphabetically, but every entry is linked to /?post_type=page&p=85

These 3 warnings appear as a group each time the plug-in is called. That’s a lot of warnings. PHP Warning: Illegal string offset 'category' in /home/<account>/wp-content/plugins/list-posts-alphabetically/list-posts-alphabetically.php on line 21 PHP Warning: Cannot assign an empty string to a string offset in /home/<account>/wp-content/plugins/list-posts-alphabetically/list-posts-alphabetically.php on line 21 PHP Warning: Illegal string offset 'category' in /home/<account>/wp-content/plugins/list-posts-alphabetically/list-posts-alphabetically.php on line 26 The plug-in works, but this is a problem.

Plugin is unfinished. Posts are not linked, neither letter on top of it.

Writing this to let you know, how to fix that linking issue. To link to the post listed, in line 40 of the list-posts-alphabetically.php use $lpa_az_post instead of $post inside the get_post_permalink()-function. Besides this, its a nice plugin, thanks for sharing.

Works perfectly. Excellent code logic. Thank you! However, it would be very helpful to have the A-Z entries link to their pages in the next update.
