  Hello friends!

  I have a blog (wordpress.com) using the 2014 Theme and I’m wondering if there are other archive widgets available besides the monthly one. Mine is a food blog, and I’d like to show old posts on the sidebar to entice readers to click around – with just the title of the post or maybe even a small thumbnail of my featured pic.

  Any ideas are appreciated!! :)

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

  Hello there,
  You can try using the recent posts or the top posts or the top rated posts widgets which will show a list of posts on the sidebar. You can use a tag cloud widget to make your audience browse your site for a specific type of recipe based on the tags.

  thanks, simplysaru! The tag cloud is a great idea and I added it to my blog.

  I’m using the top posts widget, which I really like. Unfortunately, since I have limited traffic to my blog, that isn’t working as well for me.

  Just wish there was a widget where I could list my archives my post name…
