Easy Post Series

Description

This plugin helps you create a series of posts. It creates a new taxonomy named ‘series’ (can be modified via filter, see FAQ). There is no setting needed for this plugin. Once it is installed, assign posts you want to group as a series via post editor.

The plugin also creates a posts navigation on posts that belong to a certain series. See screenshots for the examples.

I'm guessing this hasnt been updated to work with Gutenberg, but I cant find any way to add posts to a series. I would love to use this plugin - I really like how it appears in published posts, but the problem makes it unusuable.

Why is this the BEST post series plugin? It is extremely well developed, takes 0 effort to use, primo results, minimal space usage on both sides. 1). Nothing to set up, copy/paste, or do. 2). Series interface is minimal on the post edit page. Just a box that works exactly like Tags - you do not choose from a list of series. If you have a lot of series this is critical - a deal maker or breaker. I have tons of series - sets of activities based on one reading passage for example. It is important to have them grouped together but it was difficult, I was about to just do it manually, until this plugin. 3). Great looking, compact but complete results: with all posts in series linked in a collapsing box. So you don't use up post space with series info = but it is all available. Brilliant! This plugin is a life saver for me. Seriously. Please donate to keep this (or any 5 star) plugin you use maintained! Thank you for your work. It is a pleasure to use this plugin. It is very important to one of my sites.

I don't usually leave reviews, but after my experience with other Series plugins, I felt that I should share. This one just worked. It provides a clean, collapsible list of my post Series at the start of the post. There's a link that opens up a blog page containing all the posts in the Series. The only thing I wish it had was the ability to add a next in series/previous in series navigation link at the bottom of the post. Otherwise, it's perfect.

Works beautifully and doesn't have a sucking frontend design, as other similar plugins do!

Works perfectly out of the box. When I asked the author about a particular function, it did not exist but he added it in a new version in a matter of days. Amazing support.
