 * Is the plugin not compatible with 4.4? My hosting auto updates and now the plugin
   isn’t displaying the items, just the shortcode.

 * I have the exact same problem after updating to 4.4.

 * Seems that many plugins with shortcode have problems with 4.4.
    Found a sollution
   in other plugin threads that worked for me, manually rewrite the shortcode (dont
   copy/paste) and resave the page/post. I have no clue why 😉

 * Same issue here on 4.4
 * Seemed that just editing teh page and re-saving re-activated the shortcode. Very
   strange.

 * I haven’t been able to replicate the issue on a clean WordPress installation (
   WP and Display Posts Shortcode only).
 * But for those that do have an issue, try rewriting it and saving the post again.
 * It could have something to do with the recent security changes in 4.2.3. That
   should only apply though if you’re adding HTML markup around the shortcode. More
   details here: [https://make.wordpress.org/core/2015/07/23/changes-to-the-shortcode-api/](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2015/07/23/changes-to-the-shortcode-api/)

 * Someone showed me a link to a page exhibiting this issue. I’m not sure if it’s
   the same as all of yours, but on his site there were two spaces between the [
   display-posts and the first parameter.
 * Prior to WP4.4 this worked just fine, but in 4.4 this was converted to a special
   character and it broke. The solution was to remove the extra space. So if you’re
   having issues, make sure there’s a single space used between parameters.

 * The plugin plage says “Compatible up to: 4.3.2” but based on the above information
   I guess that it should work with 4.4.1 – can someone confirm that before I go
   ahead and upgrade? Thanks!
