 * From testing, it would appear that the solution is to include the name of a family
   member in the shortcode, though the “can” in the installation instructions implies
   that this is an option, not a requirement:
 * > “Note: You can put the post name/title of the person you wish to be displayed
   > at the root of the family tree as a parameter in the shortcode: [family-tree
   > root='<post title>’]”
