Usage The arguments you can use are:

• name - To display posts from a category using the category's name. Ex: [catlist name=mycategory]

• id - To display posts from a category using the category's id. Ex: [catlist id=24]. You can include several categories: Ex: [catlist id=17,24,32] or exclude a category with the minus (-)
  If you use both arguments (wrong!), List Category Posts will show the posts from the category in 'name'.
