Generally when this does not work it is for one of the following reasons:
- The was an error introduced when copy/pasting the code for the snippet. Double check the code.
- The snippet was not activated. Make sure you did activate the snippet. This is the most common error. It is saved but not activated.
- There is an error in the shortcode. Make sure you edit shortcodes while in the Text tab of the WordPress editor. Copy/pasting from a webpage while in the Visual editor pastes HTML which breaks the ability of WordPress to properly read the shortcode. My suggestion is to delete the shortcode, switch the editor to the Text tab and then manually type it in again.
I did have an error in the doc, the shortcode option should be initial_results='false'. I fixed that. Apologies for that error!
