Try [wp-tiles post_type=”post” category=”***”] where you replace *** with the name of the category you want to display.
Good luck

Thank you Tony.
I did also try this but I was unable to make it work.
Cheers,

What categories do you have? How is their hierarchie?

During my tests I created only 1 category, let’s say “test”, as a root category (no parent category).
Then I created 2 posts associated only with this category and 2 others associated only with the WordPress default category (“uncategorized”).
When I tried [wp-tiles post_type=”post” category=”test”] , all 4 posts were displayed.
Okay. Start off by using following code
[wp-tiles category=”test”]
If that doesn’t work:
– either test is misspelled
– or all posts have same category
– or “test” is root category and “uncategorized” is subcategory of “test”
Try to create a second category, let’s say “test-2” and use it for the 2 uncategorized posts.
You can always try to use the WP-Tiles shortcode creator (four squares symbol) from within your page where you want to display the tiles. So you can be sure that there is nothing misspelled.
I hope you will succeed.
Thanks Tony! Your solution worked. So simple. I could not figure out what to do in the shortcode. I just needed specific categories.
It took me much longer to find this solution than it did to impliment it.
Oh the four squares in the TinyMCE editor?! I had no idea about those.
