 * Please share more information, I want to help you with this.
 * Where was it used, and what attributes?
 * The shortcode won’t work if there aren’t any Affinitomic elements (Descriptors,
   Draws, Distances) for it to interact with. You may also need to export the Affinitomics
   if the pages or posts existed previous to the plugin being installed.

 * I write affinitomic element but its not working. I use [afview limit=”4″] shortcode.
   can you give me one example?

 * We really want to help, can you tell me what the Affinitomics™ are on the page/
   post you have placed the shortcode on? Are there four other pages / posts with
   viable Affinitomic™ elements for it to interact with?
 * A demo of the same shortcode (in a widget) can be found here (on the right) [http://prefrent.com/derek-alderton/](http://prefrent.com/derek-alderton/):
   It sorts our founders based on overlapping skill sets. If you click each name,
   you’ll see it re-sorts the list accordingly.
 * Here’s the shortcode:
    `[afview display_title="false" category_id="332" limit
   ="6"]`

 * I’m going to mark as resolved. Please Email me again or re-open if you have further
   issues.
