 * Hi,
 * Being fairly new to WP, am I missing something about how messages are to be attached
   to a post/page in order to be shown in the document list?
 * The only way I know to attach documents is via the normal “add media”. By doing
   this, I get a normal link to the document. Adding the `[documents]` shortcode
   to the post/page does not make any difference, i.e. no list of documents is shown
   as this plugin should do and the ‘normal link’ remains.
 * How should this be done properly?
