    This plugin is designed for Joomla 2.5 and 3+. It is automatically installed when you install Advanced Folder Listing version 1.5 component.

    The shortcode expression is {advlisting}. It has 4 attributes as follows:

    advlisting Attribute default value possible values
    id 0 Any integer representing the id of an existing listing
    layout table list, table or pagetable
    title 0 1 for Yes, or 0 for No
    description 0 1 for Yes, or 0 for No

    For a full example of how to use the plugin, type the following code:

    {advlisting id=102 layout=pagetable description=1}
    

    Also note that attributes can be specified with single quotes, double quotes, or no quotes (if the value contains no spaces or are integers).
