 * I’m not sure its the fault of the P2 theme I am using but I pretty much followed
   the instructions here: [https://en.support.wordpress.com/display-posts-shortcode/](https://en.support.wordpress.com/display-posts-shortcode/)
 * The posts are rendered in a page but not immediately. I always have to refresh
   the page to see the posts displayed in the page. I’ve tested using most browsers
   and always the same.
 * Here is an example: [https://innerventur.es/sense-making/](https://innerventur.es/sense-making/)
 * Any ideas anyone?

 * There is a 1-hour cache time on the Display Posts shortcode on WordPress.com,
   which accounts for the delay.
