Themes

Recent Entries includes support for the Default and Corporate EE2 themes. In addition it supports custom themes: If you have a custom theme and would like to override the default styles then create a new file named yourtheme.css (where ‘yourtheme’ is, you’ve guessed it, the name of the custom theme you’re using) and place it inside the /themes/third_party/recent_entries/css folder. The file will be detected and displayed instead of the default CSS.


Showing more/fewer entries

To modify the number of entries that are listed, change the following line of code within acc.recent_entries.php:

var $max_entries 12
