## Description

The query_posts() function is often misused by theme and plugin developers. This
little plugin will call WordPress’ built-in _doing_it_wrong() function, whenever
query_posts() is used within a theme or plugin. It doesn’t stop the query itself,
but simply issues a notice if running in debug mode.

If you have a friend who uses query_posts(), use this plugin to help your friend
out.
