 * Hi,
 * If I used this shortcode to display a category “related posts” at the bottom 
   of blog posts is it possible to exclude the current page you are on? So the blog
   post you are reading it doesn’t show in the category list below?
 * Thanks

 * Yes, you can use the exclude_current parameter.
