 * Hi, could you please give an explicit example of a shortcode for inserting a 
   shoutbox into a page?
 * I used [schreikasten:30] and the shoutbox displayed.
 * When I insert [schreikasten:Comments,30] only a yellow rectangle shows in the
   page with the shortcode shown: [schreikasten:Comments,30]
 * Thanks.
