 * I just tried this plugin for a site I’m helping build, and it does everything
   I need perfectly except one little thing (I have no idea if it’s really little,
   or a big deal for programming).
    I was hoping you could include an option in 
   the shortcode to include a blog posts featured image? My client is saying he 
   wants the blog post featured image included… I would love to continue to use 
   your plugin, but for now I need to look for a different one that will meet my
   clients needs…
 * If you include this, I’d love to use it! This plugin is so simple and straight
   forward and it does exactly what it’s supposed to do…
 * Thank you wonderful wordpress developer!

 * Hi,
    thanks for your feedback 🙂
 * Adding featured images is not difficult, but if I add this option to the plugin,
   I should also add more options to choose the position where images should be 
   displayed, their sizes and so on.
    It’s something I’ve always wanted to do, but
   I have a lot of work and I can’t find time for that!
 * What you can do for now – with just some coding, is editing the plugin file and
   add the line you need to the output (lines 74/78).
 * You could add something like:
    $output .= get_the_post_thumbnail();
 * to display the featured image.
 * Best,
    Daniele

 * Thank you…
 * I was just thinking, that if you had it as an option and put the picture inside
   a div in the output of the plugin, then the webmaster using it could modify position
   and such with css… Just my thoughts…
 * Thanks for your help!

 * Great simple plugin which allows Posts or excerpts tp be posted on standard pages.
 * Easy to create a shortcode to only post specific categories.
 * But – Include Featured images is what I really want.
 * The code suggestion above works, but I am a ‘reluctant’ coder. It would be great
   to add this as a feature plus positioning and styling control.
 * In the meantime I will try to find something else – if such a plugin exists.
