 * Hi fabriciofernandesst5,
 * This is rather easy to do.
 * Do you already have other categories? If not, create a new category.
 * Go to Setting – Writing and change the Default Post Category (currently Uncategorized)
   into something else.
 * Go back to your categories. You can now delete the Uncategorized category.
 * Hope that helped.

 * Hello MarineKingAizen,
 * I don’t know about your theme, but I have changed some php code in my theme file.
   Search for something that looks like :
 * `<?php truncate_post(30,false) ?>`
 * At least, this is how it looks like in my theme.
 * Previously the number was 210 (characters). I have changed this to 30. WP 4.3
   seems to have changed this into words.
 * Hope this helps.
 * All the best,
 * Yves

 * Hello Patrick,
 * It has been a while, so I do not remember the specific things I have tested. 
   As I did not found a good solution back then, this functionality is not yet implemented
   in my website (however, I would really like to do it as soon as possible).
 * I hope that you can find a solution and add some logical expressions. Changing
   the template is something I won’t do as I might need over 300 pages with different[
   ic_add_posts] shortcodes.
 * There are actually 2 plugins with about the same functionality. Yours and [List Category Posts](http://wordpress.org/plugins/list-category-posts/).
   I prefer to use your plugin as your template system is more easy (and useful 
   for me) (however, I would also like to suggest something about this – if you 
   are open for suggestions on this part of the plugin).
 * So in brief, I hope you can update the plugin.
 * All the best,
 * Yves

 * Hi Paul,
 * The AND function seems to work with tags but not with categories.
 * Hope the plugin authors can manage a solution. Have you found something useful?

 * But this doesn’t seem to work for categories 🙁
 * [ic_add_posts category=’cat1′ category=’cat2′]
 * Does not result in all posts that belong to both Cat1 AND Cat2.
 * Dear plugin authors, do you have a solution for this?
 * Kind regards,

 * Hello siobhyb,
 * This code does integrate a list of child categories
 * In this case [region]
    Change 35 into the parent category Change
 *     ```
       $sep = ', ';
       ```
   
 * into something else in order to have a different separator. For instance
 *     ```
       $sep = ' / ';
       ```
   
 * Good luck with your project!
 *     ```
       /**
        * Shortcode function to show child categories
        * [region]
        */
   
       function region($atts) {
       	$sep = '';
       	$output = '';
       	foreach((get_the_category()) as $childcat) {
       		if (cat_is_ancestor_of(35, $childcat)) {
   
       $output .= $sep . $childcat->cat_name;
       $sep = ', ';
       			}
       		}
       	return $output;
       }
       add_shortcode('region', 'region');
       ```
   
 * All thanks for this code goes to [alchymyth](http://www.transformationpowertools.com/wordpress/)
   who was so kind to help me with this code.

 * I’m using the above code. Made some changes in order to have a separator.
 * Would like to insert the child categories into the text of a post by using a 
   shortcode [region]; such as
 * This activity is possible in [region].
 * This is the function I tried to make. It works but it shows the childcategories
   above the post and not inside the text of the post.
 *     ```
       function region($atts) {
       $sep = '';
       foreach((get_the_category()) as $childcat) {
       if (cat_is_ancestor_of(27, $childcat)) {
       echo $sep.'',$childcat->cat_name,'';
       $sep = ' / ';
       }}}
   
       add_shortcode('region', 'region');
       ```
   
 * Hope to find some help here

 * I think i have found the php code for showing the childcategories inside a post.
   This code works inside the loop.
 *     ```
       <?php
       $sep = '';
       foreach((get_the_category()) as $childcat) {
       if (cat_is_ancestor_of(27, $childcat)) {
       echo $sep.'',$childcat->cat_name,'';
       $sep = ' / ';
       }}
       ?>
       ```
   
 * How to turn it into a shortcode [region] that can be used inside a post?
 *     ```
       function region($atts) {
       $sep = '';
       foreach((get_the_category()) as $childcat) {
       if (cat_is_ancestor_of(27, $childcat)) {
       echo $sep.'',$childcat->cat_name,'';
       $sep = ' / ';
       }}}
   
       add_shortcode('region', 'region');
       ```
   
 * seems to work… but it places the childcategories above the post and not inside
   the text.
 * Almost there… just need that little bit of help 😉

 * Hi Ipstenu,
 * Thank you for your input. Have been looking for this since a long time.
 * Do you think it can be done by Domain Mapping? I have been trying the plugin 
   but I don’t understand it to much.
