 * Hi Bill,
 * I’m wondering if there’s a way I can use this shortcode to display posts by a
   specified author. i.e. I’m just looking for an “author” argument to add. The 
   primary reason I’d like to use your plugin instead of the author template page
   is because I want to query custom taxonomies at the same time.
 * Thanks for your plugin and thoughts on achieving this.

 * I’ve added this to the development version of the plugin, which you can download
   here: [http://www.github.com/billerickson/Display-Posts-Shortcode](http://www.github.com/billerickson/Display-Posts-Shortcode)
 * Once I’ve added a few more features I’ll release a new version on WordPress.org(
   I don’t want people to have to update too often, so I put a bunch of changes 
   in each release)

 * Thanks, Bill. It looks like you added support for authors in version 2.1, which
   I believe is the most current stable version. Thanks!
