Description

The "Top Posts" widget has some cool display settings, specifically "Image List":

I love the look of a small thumbnail on the left and the title of the post to the right.

Any plans to bring these settings to the Display WordPress Posts widget? Right now they're a lot different visually, and I'd love to have the same look as the Image List in Top Posts.

Confirm the desired thumbnail-and-title layout from the linked screenshot and original feature request; the work is done when the Display WordPress Posts widget offers the equivalent visual presentation.
