  I added the code [display-posts tag="postit" posts_per_page="20"] to the page that you linked, and it still doesn’t seem like it’s working…

  A link to your post tagged “postit” is being displayed below the slider here:

  If you’d like to also display a post excerpt you can add this attribute to your shortcode

  include_excerpt="true"

  Since the site only has one post with a “postit” tag, the display posts shortcode you used should display just the title link to that one post. Is that what it displays?

  Yes!

  Thanks for showing me this. I added the following code:
  [display-posts tag="postit" posts_per_page="20" include_excerpt="true"] and the excerpt isn’t showing up. Is there something that I need to edit in the post that’s tagged?

  Since this specific post has neither any text (it’s just an image) nor an excerpt that you’ve added manually, it’s unable to display an excerpt.

  You can either add some text in addition to the image that’s there now, or add a manual excerpt:
