 * Hi webadeptuk,
 * The following error may occur, if you are using a shortcode [latest_portfolio_items]
   instead of [latest_portfolio_items count=3] without specifying the value for “
   count”.
 * If you would like to add the Latest Portfolio Items to your page or post, just
   copy and paste this shortcode into your post or page: [latest_portfolio_items
   count=3], where count=3 is a number of posts to show up in the portfolio.
 * Regards,
    BestWebSoft Support Team
