Hi,
A nice plugin but I have two issues.
If I use it on various themes, it is putting the recent posts below the footer. I have tried playing around with the settings.
My setups use SEO yoast + glue and the normal AMP plugin
If I us the shortcode version then I don’t get the featured images / date etc. Fair enough but it is putting an extra at the end of the list of recent posts. I have tried to remove this but have not found where it is being added in.
I have tried using the shortcode directly in the amp template file and also via the functions.php file so it appears just after the content.
Here is an example,

David, yea I am aware that the AMP native footer places itself above the footer hook, why Automattic does this I do not know. There is a simple solution thought, either change it in the AMP template (move footer hook down OR use our ‘AMP Footer Widgets’ plugin which has an option to hide the native footer and replace it with a better (fully marked up credits footer) one.
It seems like you have missed a closing tag i.e on the shortcode function.
Thanks for your feedback David, I will probably be able to have a look at this later tonight!
Hi David, unfortunately I am not able to reproduce the error. The shortcode is working well for me in the template, do you have the latest version of the plugin? Please send any further communication over this directly to my email tech[at]jaaadesign.nl, so I can make sure this is at you end only.
