No image/thumbnail options?
-
Your theme needs to support Post Thumbnail, please go to https://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Thumbnails to read more info and how to activate it in your theme.
-
Thumbnail Size
-
By default it uses arpw-thumbnail which have 50×50 size. If you want to use custom image size, you can install https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-image-sizes/ then create new image size, it will appear in the Thumbnail Size selectbox in the widget option.
-
Thumbnail Size Not Working Properly
-
I have mentioned it in the plugin description. If you use images that were uploaded to the media library before you installed this plugin and/or you have your own custom image sizes, please install Regenerate Thumbnails plugin to fix the image size.

How to add custom style?
-
The plugin comes with a very basic style, if you want to add custom style please do
wp_dequeue_style
to remove the default stylesheet. Place the code below in your themefunctions.php
.function prefix_remove_arpw_style() { wp_dequeue_style( 'arpw-style' ); } add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'prefix_remove_arpw_style', 10 );
Then you can add your custom style using Custom CSS plugin or in your theme
style.css
. Here’s the plugin selector/* ul */ .arpw-ul {} /* li */ .arpw-li {} /* title */ .arpw-title {} /* thumbnail */ .arpw-thumbnail {} /* date */ .arpw-time {} /* excerpt */ .arpw-summary {}
