Easily display posts grouped by year and month, in one or more elegant formats



== Description ==



Smart Archives Reloaded allows you to display a list of posts grouped by year and month. It also provides several interesting navigation elements.



**Format list:**



* **list** = a list of posts grouped by month

* **block** = a compact block of links to year and date archive pages

* **menu** = a two-level menu with links to year and date archive pages

* **both** = block + list ([example](http://scribu.net/archive))

* **fancy** = menu + list + JavaScript ([example](http://www.conceptfusion.co.nz/archive))



**No support**



I do not offer support for this plugin, either free or paid.



**Credits:**



* [Justin Blanton](http://justinblanton.com), for the original [Smart Archives](http://justinblanton.com/projects/smartarchives/) plugin

* [Simon Pritchard](http://www.conceptfusion.co.nz/), for the fancy format
