 * I am trying to insert the [get_posts] code into the html field of the WP editor
   as posted in the instructions, but the Pages just keep showing up with [get_posts]
   on them when I publish them. What am I doing wrong?

 * Can you use the short code in templates? I tried it and, as torndownunit experienced,
   I end up with [get_posts] text instead of the listing.
 * Ideas?

 * Use
 * `<?php echo (do_shortcode('[get_posts]')); ?>`
