    Hi there,

    “Allow override of settings within shortcode parameter”

    Where can I find documentation of this please? I have looked everywhere.

    I have 60 lists set up and if I can override the settings via the shortcode without having to actually go into the List itself, that would be great.

    Thanks,

    Chantal

    Hi,

    I’m afraid we don’t have a published documentation for the shortcode parameter list as of the moment.

    But rest assured. Tom is prepping up something related to this.

    In the meantime, if you have any particular things you want done w/ it, feel free to ask us. 🙂

    Okay, can someone please give me the shortcode to display a specific category? I know the following is for displaying tags:

    [wp_show_posts id=”76440″ settings=”taxonomy=post_tag&tax_term=humanities”]

    But I need it for displaying a Category.

    That way I can delete all 60 lists (which are the same style) and just have the one – it would make my life SO much easier. I wasn’t aware of the shortcode functionality when I set them up.

    Many thanks!

    Sure, you can try this.

    [wp_show_posts id="76440" settings="taxonomy=category&tax_term=humanities"]

    We simply change the “post_tag” to “category”.

    Aah, I tried changing it to post_category before and it didn’t work. Thanks so much!

    Is there a list available? Because if I need to override other settings don’t want to go back and forth in opening support tickets.
