Parameters

date_range_start=

date_range_start="6 months ago"

Required to set start date of months. Both standard and easy-to-use text date formatting apply to this parameter. This parameter defaults to today (current month) when no value specified.

date_range_end=

date_range_end="6 months"

Use this parameter to set end date of months. If this parameter is not specified, then the default limit of 12 results will kick in, unless a different value is specified in the limit parameter. Both standard and easy-to-use text date formatting apply to this parameter.

limit=

limit="18"

This parameter allows you to limit the amount of month results to be displayed in the list. Default is 12 months. If this parameter is not specified, the default value of this parameter only kicks in when the date_range_end parameter is not used.
