  My blog is mainly based on pages and articles. When people visit my blog, I would like them to see, what the latest pages and articles are.
  Alternatively, is there a way to design my own widget. I had a look at that article, but it refers to displaying images or links.
  The text widget does not permit line breaks…or does it? Could you tell me how?
  Thanks
  Wolfgang

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Use the Recent Posts widget. And the Pages widget.

  Thanks for your reply.

  However, I don’t know how any of those widgets can do the trick.

  Recent posts shows posts only… or is there a trick? Generally, I announce new publications through a post… is it that what you mean?

  Pages widget shows all pages … no sorting by publication date… no limitation of pages shown… or?

  could you tell me a bit more in depth what you mean?
  Thanks, Wolfgang

  If you want to show only particular pages then use a Custom Menu widget.
