Get current category and place it in shortcode

So, you can get the category name with get_queried_object()->name:

if ( is_category() ) {
    echo do_shortcode( '[x_recent_posts type="post" count="2" offset="" category="' . get_queried_object()->name . '" orientation="vertical" no_sticky="true" no_image="false" fade="false"]' );
}
