 * Hello,
 * I want to report some bugs with the plugin:
 * 1. Sometimes when adding or updating a snippet, the browser tab freezes and keeps
   loading forever, even though the changes are saved correctly. It happens with
   all snippets, but not every time (I’d say 1 out of 5 times), with both Chrome
   and Firefox.
 * 2. Sometimes when editing a snippet, pressing backspace to delete a character
   deletes the whole line instead of just the single character. Afterwards, pressing
   CTRL + Z to undo the change deletes all of the lines below that. The only way
   to get the whole snippet back is to reload the page without saving.
 * 3. It only happened once, but I’m reporting it anyway: I was once editing a snippet
   and suddenly whatever I was doing on the current line started to replicate two
   lines below. If I typed or deleted something, it also typed or deleted simultaneously
   two lines below in addition to the current line. I then reloaded the page and
   it stopped happening. What the heck?
 * All of these started to happen when I updated the plugin to the latest version.
   Previous versions were fine.
 * Thank you.

 * I just want to let the developers know that the bugs are still present in the
   last plugin update.

 * Thanks for letting me know [@otpabu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/otpabu/).
   Unfortunately, I am still unable to reproduce the errors myself, so I will continue
   trying.

 * I’ve made a few changes to how the edit snippet page works in version 2.13.0.
   It would be fantastic if some people experiencing this error could try it out
   and see whether it fixes anything.

 * Hello Shea,
 * I have updated the plugin, but unfortunately the problem is still there.
 * Both Chrome and Firefox freeze about once every 4-5 times I update a snippet.
 * The snippets do actually update, but the frozen tab must be forcedly closed.
 * If you aren’t able to reproduce the issue, I could maybe let you login to my 
   wp-admin in the future so that you can see and perhaps diagnose the source of
   the problem.
 * For now, thank you for your work and merry Christmas!

 * I have four snippets and re-saved each one about 4 times, and did not experience
   any problems.
