there is a new recent posts widget and template tag… so yeah… the name of the template tag has changed to sp_RecentPostsTag() with a whole slew of potential options (see the code)… for either, you will need the template tags plugin for SP…
Sadly Brandon did write up the widget which was lost when we had the server issues before Christmas. So the answer is not yet.
But the recent posts template tag is pretty well documented in the code header

Thanks will have a look.
The codex info on the widget and how to setup is still available.

If you use a theme that allows widgets in different areas, header, sidebar, footer, etc then that may be all you need.
We did lose the info on how to use that template tag but as Andy said it is pretty well documented.
For example here is one of my setups.
<?php sp_RecentPostsTag(‘beforeForum=In the Forum: &afterForum= &beforeUser= <b>&afterUser= </b>&beforeTopic= posted:&afterDate=<hr />&itemOrder=FUTD&limit=12’);?>
Makes it look like this:

I hope to rewrite this one and post it soon.
Thanks. So something like this
<?php sf_recent_posts_tag(10, true, true, true, false, false, true, $avatar=true, $size=100); ?>
will no longer work?
No
We have changed all template tags and functions to use the alternative WP syntax of the ‘argument1=x&argument2=y’… etc. type.
