 * Hi.
    Is it possible to use SEARCH function, including in SEARCH tag automatically
   current title post instead to put a text manually?

 * You mean [catlist search=”sometext”] where “sometext” is always current post 
   title? No, this is not possible, only if you use custom PHP code.

 * It depends on where you want the code to be placed. But assuming we have a `$
   post` object you can do this:
 *     ```
       global $post;
       echo do_shortcode('[catlist search="' . $post->post_title . '"]');
       ```
