 * Recently, I’ve started getting a syntax error with the plugin. Below is the javascript
   code generated. I am not sure how the following line can be correct:
 *  toAppend+=String.fromCharCode(t[i]+t[i-1]);
 * Thanks for any insight.

 * The above is not what I am getting. I am getting this:
 * `toAppend+=String.fromCharCode(t & # 091;i & # 093;+t & # 091;i-1 & # 093;);`
 * I added blank spaces above, otherwise the characters get interpreted when I enter
   them here. Looks like some other plugin is replacing the brackets by their html
   character code equivalent 🙁

 * Hi Khromov,
 * It looks like the culprit is the custom content shortcode plugin. Posted on that
   plugin support forum to alert the author.
 * Thanks for getting back to me.
