Recent Posts From Category

Hi, wondered if anyone could help with this. Am trying to show a list of the 3 latest posts, excluding category 6, however my $projects array is not working. ie The posts are displayed but are not limited to 3 and category 6 is not being excluded.

 

////* 45: Add [recent_projects] shortcode */
function ff_recent_projects_list() {
ob_start();
echo '<ul>';
$projects = array( ‘numberposts’ => 3, ‘exclude’ => 6 );
$recent_projects= wp_get_recent_posts( $projects );
foreach( $recent_projects as $recent ){
echo '<li><a href="' . get_permalink($recent["ID"]) . '" title="Look '.$recent["post_title"].'" >' .   $recent["post_title"].'</a> </li> ';
}
echo '</ul>';
return ob_get_clean();
}
add_shortcode( 'recent_projects', 'ff_recent_projects_list' );

 

Thanks!
David
