I'm designing a WordPress website and would like to show up the pages that were created finally(much like the recent posts)
So, how can I modify the "Recent Posts" feature to show up Pages and not Posts?

Reset to default 1I have a ready made custom widget for recent page it was made for recent posts .. So please change the post text to page in the below code.
View thoroughly , only change the text that is for display purpose.
- Add this code to your functions.php file
- Goto appearance->widgets you will see you newly created widget
Custom Recent Pages - Drag it to the active sidebar and make the changes as per requirement.
Done !!! you can see that in the front-end sidebar.
add_action( 'widgets_init', 'register_widgets_func' ); class cust_recentpage_widget extends WP_Widget { function __construct() { parent::__construct( 'cust_recentpage_widget', // Base ID __( 'Custom Recent Pages', 'text_domain' ), // Name array( 'description' => __( 'A Widget to display Recent Pages In the Website', 'text_domain' ), ) // Args ); } public function widget( $args, $instance ) { if($instance['only_title'] == ''){ //echo $args['before_widget']; echo '<aside class="col-md-4 block">'; if ( ! empty( $instance['title'] ) ) { echo $args['before_title'] . apply_filters( 'widget_title', $instance['title'] ). $args['after_title']; } if($instance['no_of_post'] == 0 || $instance['no_of_post'] == ''){ $num_of_post = 3; } else{ $num_of_post = $instance['no_of_post']; } // The Query $args = array( 'post_type' => 'page', 'post_status' => 'publish', 'posts_per_page'=> $num_of_post, 'orderby' => 'ID', 'order' => 'DESC' ); //p($args); $the_query = new WP_Query( $args ); // The Loop if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) { $loop = '<ul class="data">'; while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) { $the_query->the_post(); $strip_c = strip_tags(get_the_content()); $loop .='<li class="press-box no-list-icon">'; if(has_post_thumbnail()){ $padd_left = ''; $strlimit = 70; $loop .= '<div class="img">'.get_the_post_thumbnail(get_the_id(),array(78,60)).'</div>'; }else{ $padd_left = 'style="padding-left: 0;"'; $strlimit = 80; } $content = substr($strip_c,0,$strlimit); if(strlen(get_the_title()) > 25){ $tittle = substr(get_the_title(),0,26).'...'; }else{ $tittle = get_the_title(); } $loop .= '<div class="details" '.$padd_left.'> <h5 title="'.get_the_title().'">'.$tittle.'</h5> <p>'.$content.'...</p> </div> </li>'; } $loop .='</ul>'; } else { $loop = 'No pages Yet'; } /* Restore original Post Data */ echo $loop; echo '</aside>'; } else{ //echo $args['before_widget']; echo '<div class="panel panel-default">'; if ( ! empty( $instance['title'] ) ) { echo $args['before_title'] .'<a data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion" href="#collapseTwo" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapseTwo" class="collapsed">'. apply_filters( 'widget_title', $instance['title'] ).
