Annual Archive widget extends the default WordPress Archive sidebar widget by allowing daily, weekly, monthly or annual archives to be displayed. The widget can also display a list of posts ordered by decade, date or alphabetically. Also included is a simple shortcode that will display an archive list on any post or page.

Why Use Annual Archive?

Good question. One reason might be that you have posts that pre-date WordPress, the Internets… before Johannes Gutenberg, the invention of paper or even the wheel. That would be a seriously long list when archived by month.

Using Annual Archive could shrink that list by as much as twelve times! Just imagine all the sidebar space that will save for other widgets such as a fancy countdown, or perhaps even a list of related attachments.
