You can create multiple directories with this plugin.

Every directory can be embedded with a very simple shortcode which you can just copy-and-paste

in your own pages and posts. Every directory has a few configuration options that customize

the layout and functionality of the directory:

• Show/Hide title

• Show/Hide description

• Enter the subject of the directory (i.e.: movies, birds, countries, names)

• Show/Hide suggestion form

• Show/Hide submitter name

• Show/Hide search function (searches names/titles and description)

• Show/Hide a horizontal rule between the entries

• Show/Hide all entries when the user has not chosen an index-letter yet

• Show/Hide the newest entries (and choose an amount of newest entries to show)

• Choose the amount of columns to display

• Whether to jump to the name directory when a visitor is using the search box (for onepage websites)
