    For my own purposes, I’ve switched to show_excerpt but one thing I now miss which I used to get with show_content, is the post date which is not displayed with the title and excerpt. Would it be possible to include a “show_date” option which could be combined with “show_excerpt”?

    There is no show_content argument in the shortcode, just the show_excerpt parameter.

    With the [post-content] shortcode, if you set show_excerpt, then the shortcode will attempt to display the manual excerpt of the post rather than showing the full content. If you leave the show_excerpt parameter unset, it will attempt to show the full content of the post.

    With the [post-list] shortcode, there is no real option to show the entire post content (at least, not right now), there is just the show_excerpt option, which will attempt to display the manual excerpt if it exists; if a manual excerpt doesn’t exist, it will attempt to show the full content up to the <!–more–> tag; if there is no <!–more–> tag, it will show the full content.

    Regarding the issue you were experiencing with show_date, that should be corrected in the version I released today. Thanks.
