 * Bill, great plugin you’ve got here. I have this activated on a few of my websites
   and it’s very easy to use.
 * I just wanted to report a small bug I found. I noticed that the value “current”
   on the post_parent argument stopped working after I upgraded. It seems to be 
   the intval function on line 75 that’s causing the problem with the string “current”.
   Hope this is something you can fix when you get a chance. Thanks.

 * Good catch. I’ve just fixed it: [https://github.com/billerickson/display-posts-shortcode/commit/e62554fd123eab5c457b3110cb006ce823e46a5e](https://github.com/billerickson/display-posts-shortcode/commit/e62554fd123eab5c457b3110cb006ce823e46a5e)
 * A new version of the plugin should be ready to download shortly from the WP Repo(
   or you can download it immediately from Github)
