 I got somewhat confused when using the shortcode to list speakers on the
 website for our WordCamp Cologne:

 I added a parameter {{{order="ASC"}}} as I usually do when adding a new
 WP_Query() in a template, but to no avail. After several attempts I looked
 into the plugin source code and found out, the shortcode [speakers] only
 accepts the parameter order in lowercase, which then gets turned into
 uppercase by function [parse
 order](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.2.1/src/wp-
 includes/query.php#L2311) (introducded in WordPress 3.9).

 A simple workaround would be to add {{{$attr['order'] = strtolower(
 $attr['order'] );}}} to improve handling of the shortcode.
