 * i continue to have problems with
    `[display-posts category="in-memoriam"]` in
   [https://bostoncamerata.org/about-us/in-memoriam/](https://bostoncamerata.org/about-us/in-memoriam/)
   the generated page shows the s-c is called: `<ul class="display-posts-listing"
   ></ul>` but it’s empty:-\ i have worked around it by manually listing the few
   posts involved, but this should work, no?
