numberposts parameter has no effect

bump. Anyone else having this problem?

…doesn’t make sense because the default numberposts value seems to be 5.

I’m having the same problem: I want to display the two latest posts, but I’m getting 16!

Shortcode on page is:
[catlist name=authors numberposts=2 content=yes thumbnail=yes class=latest orderby=date order=desc]

page URL is: https://www.jmek.net/lq2013b/author-category-test

Hello,

I have the same problem too. Have you found any solution for this?

Thank you,

Hello,

Look like that jmek shortcode example works for me.

My working shortcode:

[catlist name=books numberposts=2 content=no thumbnail=no class=latest orderby=date order=desc]

In my opinion I had an extra space in my shortcode or I had a hidden wierd character on the page. In am using wysiwyg editor and I have copied the original page content from MS Word, then I deleted the original page content and I put the List Category Post shortcode which was not working correctly. So I think from this a had the problem.

Same problem here. Plugin shortcode for “numberposts=” does NOT work! Obviously, this is problematic for some and for others a non issue.

I resolved, by editing list_cat_posts.php.

On LIne 48, change the below
‘numberposts’ => ‘5’,

To your value.

Shortcode parameter does not work at all.
