In version 1.6 you can better control how each post is displayed in the list:

Also, the admin page has been rearanged in a more logical order: general settings and specific settings.

Thanks for updating & isolating issues!
You’re welcome.
Thanks. However, I was not able to make the changes work.
returned the post link and the hyphen but no author name.
returned the same.
returned the post link only.
returned the post link and the author link. However, it showed the same author (myself, author of the page where plugin is used) as author of each post.
Moreover, the link referred to:
example.com/author/
instead of:
example.com/author/username/
I am using the latest version of WordPress (2.8.4) and version 1.6 of this plugin.
Should be fixed in 1.6.1
Works now. Thanks, great plugin.
See it in action here (in Finnish):

Thanks for the update. Would you consider a %category% tag? I would then use lines like:
%post_link% %category% [%author%]
The blog doesn’t yet have so many authors they need listing, but indication of the category of each post would come handy.
In a future update. Thx for your work.
Not sure about that one. Getting the category for each post takes a fair amount of processing and we wouldn’t want to reach time or memory limits. I’ll see.
What about adding a %date% tag and %comment_count%? It would be great =) Love the plugin.
I was afraid this might happen…
By the way, why would you need a %date% tag, since the posts are already organized by month?
Maybe they were thinking of doing something like on this website: http://veerle.duoh.com/blog/archives/
If you look at her months, they have the date (day of the month) and the comment count on the far right. I’m also looking to do something similar.
Also, if there was a way to not show every month, but maybe the last x number of months, again like the website above.
When I try to activate this plugin, I get the following error:
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CLASS in /hermes/bosweb/web193/b1935/sl.foxestacado/public_html/fiction_main/wp-content/plugins/smart-archives-reloaded/smart-archives-reloaded.php on line 54
Switch to PHP 5.
lol… And I was just in the middle of creating a heavily modified version of the plugin with %comment_count% included (along with a rather adventurous implentation of the jQuery Tools multi-level tab control for fancy archive navigation)…If you’re adding fields might I suggest %post_date% (for displaying the date visually in the archive listing), %post_categories%, %post_excerpt% and possibly even %post_content%.
If you’re interested I’ll share my modified version of the plugin with you once it’s complete.
The problem with %post_date% is that different users will want different date formats:
27th Oct.
Oct. 27
etc.
%post_excerpt% and %post_content% are out of the question. Use The Loop for that.
Still thinking about %post_categories%.
Oh, and do share your version: scribu@gmail.com
Agreed… could the solution simply be to have a format field similar to the existing List Format field on the admin page that allows the user to specify the date output format (ie. “l jS F, Y” for “Tuesday 22nd September, 2009″).
I’ve though of that, but I’m not sure.
Anyway, thanks for your suggestions.
