TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

ACF Recent Posts Widget is for WordPress site owners and developers who use Advanced Custom Fields and want more control over their sidebar's recent posts display. It solves the limitations of the default Recent Posts widget by adding extensive filtering, sorting, ACF/meta key support, custom templates, and a shortcode builder for displaying posts.
