It's the main widget to display posts lists, offers multiple layouts for the posts lists and more options to control them.

  1. Title - the widget title, leave it empty to disable it.

    Most Commented Posts - Post with most commented in the first.

    Related Posts by Tags - If you want to display the related posts by tags on the article single page.
