The built-in WordPress archives widget is great for new blogs, but it doesn't look as good for more established blogs like WPBeginner. Compact Archives displays the monthly archive of posts in a more compact form than the usual long list. It can be shown as a compact block suitable for the body of an archives page:

2009: Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 
2008: Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 
2007: Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec

or in an even more compact form to fit a sidebar:

2009: J F M A M J J A S O N D 
2008: J F M A M J J A S O N D 
2007: J F M A M J J A S O N D

or something in between:

2009: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12
2008: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12
2007: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12

If you like this plugin, and want to learn more about WordPress, then I suggest that you visit WPBeginner. It is one of the largest free WordPress resource site with tons of WordPress tutorials, and I'm proud to say that I created it.

We also have free WordPress video tutorials, and numerous other guides such as how to choose the best WordPress hosting, how to install WordPress and many more.

I often get asked what are the best WordPress plugins? Which plugins should I use on my site? What are the must have plugins? I have created a blueprint of all the plugins and tools that I'm using. Take a look at plugins I'm using at WPBeginner

Note for Beginners: Like all plugins, Compact Archives is only available for self-hosted WordPress sites. So YES you need to switch from WordPress.com to WordPress.org in order to use this plugin on your WordPress site. For more details, see my infographic on Self hosted WordPress.org vs Free WordPress.com
