I see the feature that displays squares/tiles with recent posts, but I'm looking for a way to create a list in my sidebar. Just a list of the post titles. Is that possible?
Somewhere in here someone suggested what I think is an easier work-around. Make your own text box, Edit, highlight your post title, hit the "link" sign... in another tab, open up your live site (you have to have published to do this), go to the post you're trying to link to, copy its url, and paste that in under Web page...
we're working on the recent post list widget, however, you can already create it using Wix Blog Post Collection. With it you can design your entire blog feed and existing post widgets (e.g. Recent Post), create new widgets such as Popular Posts, Featured Posts etc.
How to do it?
Turn on Developer Tools and a database of your posts will be automatically created:
Add a repeater (from the Lists & Grids section in the add panel) or a gallery and design it to be a Recent post / Featured posts widget.
Connect the repeater / gallery to the post collection data, using a dataset. Make sure to connect the title to the Title field, the image (if exists) to the Cover Image field and link to the Post Page URL field.

I think that's the advise @Robert Hamilton was prepared to give :)
@Simona Griskute Wow, that is a lot from where it began. Thank you. I shall try this out and hope it doesn't take hours as the last one took seconds...and report back. Many thanks again Simona
