 * I just installed the latest version your plugin (2.1) and I’m getting this warning
   message:
 * “Warning: Illegal string offset ‘length’ in /home/triwareb/public_html/cb60/wp-
   content/plugins/posts-for-page/posts-for-page.php on line 69”
 * It’s also showing up for visitors, I’m going to modify the plugin but could this
   be looked into?

 * Any idea how to fix this? I’m having the same issue on a client site?

 * So specifying length as a parameter fixes this.
    [posts-for-page length=”50″]
 * Behaves the same as it used to with using just [posts-for-page]
