Using the WP Category category widget to dynamically display a specific category (WP / PHP)

I am trying to use the Category Posts (WP-CPL) plugin on a blog that I am working on to filter Recent Posts by category. Basically, when someone clicks on a category’s name on a blog, I would like it to display posts from that category. This will be through the "archives.php" file of the Life Is Simple template.

Barcode for the plugin:

[wp_cpl_sc cat_id=40 list_num=4 css_theme=2 sticky_post="79"]

This is just an example where "cat_id" represents the category that the plugin will display. I don’t want to show only one category, I want it to display the corresponding category when someone clicks on a link. How can I make the plug-in recognize which category is being requested and display the appropriate messages?

I know the name of the category:

<?php single_cat_title(); ?>

But how do I find the category identifier this way? I have included PHP for the include file called "wp_cpl_shortcode.php" below if it needs to be edited. I would prefer to use short code in the actual coding of the site for simplicity.

<?php
/**
 * shortcode
 * The library of shortcode class
 * @author Swashata <swashata4u@gmail.com>
 * @subpackage WP Category Post List Plugin

/**

 * @since 1.1.0
 * This was started from the version 1.1.0 and was finished by 2.0.0
 */
class itgdb_wp_cpl_shortcode {
    /**
     * The wp_cpl_shortcode_handler function

     * @param array $atts The attributes passed through the shortcode

     * @return string The modified content
     */
    public function wp_cpl_shortcode_handler($atts, $content = null) {
        /** first extract the attributes */
        $op = shortcode_atts(array(
        'cat_id'            => 1,
            'css_theme'                 => 0,
        'is_thumb'          => 'true',
        'list_num'          => 10,
        'show_comments'     => 'true',
        'sort_using'        => 1,
        'sort_order'        => 'asc',
        'exclude_post'      => '',
        'sticky_post'       => '',
            'show_date'                 => 'true',
            'show_author'               => 'true',
            'show_excerpt'              => 'true',
            'excerpt_length'            => 150,
            'optional_excerpt'          => 'false',
            'read_more'                 => __('Continue Reading', itgdb_wp_cpl_loader::$text_domain),
        ), $atts);

        /** Sanitize some of the user datas */
        $cat_id = (int) $op['cat_id'];
        $i = 0;
        /** Done, now the main thing */
        include_once itgdb_wp_cpl_loader::$abs_path . '/includes/wp_cpl_output_gen.php';
        $output_gen = new itgdb_wp_cpl_output_gen();
        return $output_gen->shortcode_output_gen($op);
    }
}

Sorry, if this question is concretized, I am still participating and I think that today I was spinning my brain. Thanks for any help!
