Hi, in my old theme I have this shortcode for display the post with a particular tag like an actor:

Película

[display-posts category="película" tag="park-shi-hoo" posts_per_page="100"]

Serie

[display-posts category="serie" tag="park-shi-hoo" posts_per_page="100"]

and the result is:

Película

– After Love
– Confession of Murder

Serie

– Babel
– Lovely Horribly
– My Golden Life
– Local Hero
– Cheongdamdong Alice
– The Princess’ Man
– Queen of Reversals
– Family’s Honor
– Iljimae
– Delightful Girl Choon Hyang

I have the Haru Theme (Circle), is there any way I can do this with the directors and actors in this theme.

Best regards,

Dalia
