 * Hi there,
 * Sorry if this is a basic question, but what is the shortcode to display the current

 * Thanks!

 * Do you mean what is the function to display the page title?

 * If you mean an actual shortcode, it is possible to create that based on the above
   function, but it isn’t something that is available by default.
 * You may want to consider using a re-usable block instead though 🙂
