 * As you can see on this page — [https://janasnyder.com/articles/](https://janasnyder.com/articles/)—
   the code itself is showing, not a list. What’s wrong?
 * It’s the same on my desktop (Chrome) and my phone (android).
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fonly-code-not-list-showing%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@janajanasnydercom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/janajanasnydercom/),
   
   Try pasting the code on your post without formatting or using the HTML view to
   write the code. It looks like the WordPress rich text editor is wrapping the 
   code with html tags and such.
 * Also, I suggest using the category slug for the name:
    [catlist name=”stage-2″]
 * Hope this fixes your issue.
    Cheers!

 * I also have this problem. See [https://trinisue.com/select-posts-by-category/coronavirus-in-tt/](https://trinisue.com/select-posts-by-category/coronavirus-in-tt/)
 * I did the fixes as suggested to Jana but it still doesn’t work. This is a new
   page copied from similar pages which do continue to work. When I messed with 
   a previous page (health & fitness) then that also now doesn’t work.
 * What to do?

 * [@trinisue](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trinisue/) it looks like you 
   missed the initial `[`
 * This:
    `catlist name=”coronavirus-in-tt” numberposts=30]` Should be: `[catlist
   name=”coronavirus-in-tt” numberposts=30]`

 * Thanks, Fernando. I managed to put it back in though WordPress kept removing 
   it. It now works! Many thanks for a quick response.
