I’ve written this down as an issue to make it more clear that you shouldn’t copy both 🙂 * If that’s not the case, maybe you are having the widget show up twice? * In case it’s not resolved, please post a link to the site so I can check. * [werewolve](https://wordpress.org/support/users/werewolve/) * (@werewolve) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-buttons-showing/#post-6487592) * I think i resolved it myself (actually the first time) * after :kleine tetten you see (” character that one needs to removed only the last one * [maxbutton id=”5″] [maxbutton name=”kleine tetten”] * Plugin Author [maxfoundry](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maxfoundry/) * (@maxfoundry) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-buttons-showing/#post-6487596) * Thanks werewolve for letting us know you’ve got it fixed.
