 * The second column begins several lines below the first making my page look odd.
   Any idea how to fix this? I’ve tried deleting spaces and adding spaces in the
   code but nothing seems to help. Thoughts?

 * I found that I had to place both parts of the WP Easy Columns code on the same
   line in a page/post to make the two columns align. Hopefully this helps.

 * The problem is that WordPress will add <p> tags if you hit carriage return. The
   shortcodes should be as close to each other as possible to avoid any unwanted
   <p> tags in the content.
 * Hope that helps!
