 * When the shortcode is placed on a page, the plugin displays but doesn’t work.
   Also, the following code shows up above the listing:
 *     ```
       Warning: date() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/mysite/public_html/wp-content/plugins/custom-event-espresso-list-displayer/espresso_event_displayer.php on line 856

       ```
   
 * Bummer! 🙁
