 * Dots appear regardless of the attribute `dots=false` being set or not.

 * Hello,
 * Are you using like this :
 *     ```
       [slick-slider dots="false"]
       ```
   
 * Please do not copy and paste the code directly from here. First add in to some
   notepad and then add in to editor OR manually add the parameter ie `dots="false"`.

 * yes, that’s what I am using. Instead I have to add a css styling display:none
   to hide them.
 * dots=false is the default according to the documentation

 * no. Adding the attribute does not make any difference. I have no js errors being
   reported in the console either.

 * sure, [here](https://www.chinarts.info/en/) it is.
 * If you inspect either slider on the side of the central image with the button‘
   Free Valuation’ you will seen the the `ul.slick-dots` element has a `display:
   none` styling…but in Firefox this still displays the `button` elements embedded
   in the list elements.
 * I checked on Chrome, and the issue is the same

 * Hello,
 * We have checked our end it’s working fine.
    We have checked your site slider 
   currently dots is true [https://nimb.ws/XfsBuw](https://nimb.ws/XfsBuw) You can
   use this parameter `[slick-slider dots="false"]` for remove but please do not
   copy and paste the shortcode write manually some time quotes(“) causing an issue.
 * Thanks

 * my slider shortcode is set to:
 * `[slick-slider category=38 arrows=false autoplay_interval=4000 speed=2000 fade
   =true dots=false]`
 * makes no difference.

 * Playing around with the shortcode, I realised that putting `dots=false` as the
   first attribute makes all the difference… it now removes the dots.
 * `[slick-slider dots=false category=38 arrows=false autoplay_interval=4000 speed
   =2000 fade=true]`
 * strange!

 * Hello,
 * Also, look like you have not used quotes in parameter `dots="false"`
 * Thanks

 * > Also, look like you have not used quotes in parameter
 * quotes are not required! You only need quotes when you have space characters 
   in your attribute values. Furthermore, integer values need to be unquoted to 
   make sure they work, as your plugin does not cast string values to integers.
 * > I realised that putting dots=false as the first attribute makes all the difference
 * this still means that your plugin has a bug, since it should not make a difference
   the order in which the attributes are placed in the shortcode.
