Query Shortcode WordPress Plugin
An insanely powerful shortcode that enables you to query anything you want and display it however you like.
This plugin gives you [query] shortcode which enables you to output posts filtered by specific attributes. You can format the output to your liking and even display the results in a grid of customizable columns and rows.
Also supports "lenses" which can turn your query results into Tabs, Accordion, or Carousel widgets. This feature relies on Bootstrap library to be already loaded on the page, the plugin does not include it (for that you can use the Bootstrap plugin). You can create new lenses or override the built-in ones in your theme to customize the output.
