# [Plugin: Members List Plugin] [Bug?] shortcode options not working ?

 * L.S.,
 * Even though I really, really like this plugin, I’ve had problems with it since
   v 3.2. The server this blog is running on is on PHP 4.4.4. with Mysql 4.1.21.
 * I use it in a page which has some text, then the members list (called using the
   shortcode) and then again some text.
    This worked fine up to v3 of the plugin.
 * For some reason, the options I set using the shortcode are now no longer respected.
   
   The shortcode I used was: `[members-list search=false alpha=false pagination=
   false pagination2=false sort=false]`
 * The result was a members list *with* search, alphabetical list, pagination etc.
   Not what I wanted.
 * I tried using a custom shortcode with the php code from the documentation, but
   that resulted in the list being printed above any text I had on the page. Again,
   not what I wanted.
 * As a work-around I solved it using the following code snippet which I have added
   to my theme’s functions.php file:
    _[Code moderated as per the [Forum Rules](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome).
   Please use the [pastebin](http://wordpress.pastebin.com/)]_
 * To call the member list in the middle of page, I add the [teamlist] shortcode
   to my page. Now it works again.
 * It feels very counter-intuitive having to use this work-around. A bug-fix would
   be very much appreciated!
 * If you want me to enable debug and pass on error messages or even test a new 
   version of the plugin, please feel free to contact me.
 * Spring greetings,
    Juliette

 * As a moderator removed the code as the Forum Rules only allow for max 10 lines,
   please find the uncommented snippet which does comply with the 10 line rule here:
 *     ```
       function display_memberlist() {
       	ob_start();
       	$members = new tern_members;
       	$members->members( array(  'search' => false, 'alpha' => false, 'pagination' => false, 'pagination2' => true, 'sort' => false, ) );
       	$html = ob_get_clean();
       	return $html;
       }
       add_shortcode('teamlist', 'display_memberlist');
       ```
