 * Hi dear community, first many thanks for the creator of this awesome plugin that
   saves so much time and makes the life of non coders so easy 🙂
 * I have a little problem when trying to output posts the “instance” is not working
   so the second instance of the plugin gives me the same posts.
 *     ```
       <div id="related-blog-services">
       <div class="limiter">
       <h2>From the Blog</h2>
       [catlist id=9,-10 thumbnail=yes excerpt=yes instance=1 numberposts=1 excerpt_size=30 morelink="Read more"]
       </div>
       <div class="limiter2">
       [catlist id=9,-10 numberposts=10 instance=2 date=yes]
       </div>
       </div>
       ```
   
 * The result of this code is the 1st catlist with 1 post and the second catlist
   with 10 posts, the problem I have is that the 2nd catlist is printing the same
   post as the second catlist.
 * Thanks for you help !!!

 * I think you got the “instance” parameter wrong. It’s just an identifier for when
   you’re using pagination. What are you trying to achieve?
