 * Hi,
 * I suggest support and write in documentation the format for Array(Array) key/
   value parameters. For example for
    [wpquery tax_query=”array(array(‘taxonomy’
   => ‘people’, ‘field’ => ‘slug’, ‘terms’ => ‘bob’))” orderby=”rand”] [wpq_index][/
   wpquery]
 * Note: The URL indicate for support ([http://mynewsitepreview.com](http://mynewsitepreview.com))
   show “Error establishing a database connection”)
