 * I have 3 custom post types that have a category called “seasons”. I tried to 
   use this shortcode:
 * [su_tab title=”Seizoen”] [display-posts category=”seizoen” image_size=”thumbnail”
   posts_per_page=”5″] [/su_tab]
 * [su_tab title=”Seizoen”] [display-posts tag=”5″ image_size=”thumbnail” posts_per_page
   =”5″] [/su_tab]
 * No results. But if I use this, it works, but I need to filter all 4 custom post
   types…
 * [su_tab title=”Seizoen”] [display-posts post_type=”boeken” category=”seizoen”
   image_size=”thumbnail” posts_per_page=”5″] [/su_tab]
 * But when I try this:
 * [su_tab title=”Seizoen”] [display-posts post_type=”boeken,muziek,films,bijbels”
   category=”seizoen” image_size=”thumbnail” posts_per_page=”5″] [/su_tab]
 * Only boeken shows…
 * thoughts?

 * Hi ntarantino,
 * you could try giving a little separation between those ‘seasons’ categories by
   grouping the posts with a common tag, then outputting just posts with that tag.
 * [display-posts tag=”my_special_tag” posts_per_page=”20″]
 * Replace the “my_special_tag” with the tag of your choice. This way you can output
   the posts in tons of different combinations by adding a few standard tags.
