 * Excellent plugin, and I really love the shortode builder. However, I found a 
   bug in it.
 * The Taxonomy dropdown adds three parameters like so:
    taxonomy=”cpt-slugtax-slug”
   taxonomy_terms=”” taxonomy_operator=”IN”
 * The problem is that the first parameter, ‘taxonomy’ includes the taxonomy slug
   AND the post type slug. This should only include the taxonomy slug like so:
    
   taxonomy=”tax-slug”
 * Just a simple JS fix I believe.

 * Hi Stegosource,
    I’ve never seen this one before. Just tested 3 different installs
   and can’t reproduce this.

 * Really? That’s weird.
 * Well Im using CPT UI to create a custom post type and it’s custom taxonomy. They
   are “story-of-progress” and “focus-area”.
 * Going down the shortcode builder, I select the ‘story-of-progress’ and deselet‘
   post’. Then select the taxonomy ‘focus-area’.
 * Here is where the problem occurs. I see:
    [ajax_load_more post_type=”story-of-
   impact” taxonomy=”stories-of-impactfocus-area” taxonomy_terms=”” taxonomy_operator
   =”IN”]
 * It MIGHT have to do with the fact that my custom post type has a custom rewrite
   slug: stories-of-impact/story. I dont know.
 * Another weird bug is that when I have selected the ‘focus-area’ taxonomy, it 
   says there are no terms even though there are.
 * I was able to get around it, so not a big deal. I hope this was helpful, but 
   if not, no worries.

 * Ok, thanks.
    I’ll mark as resolved for now.
 * fwiw. I use CPT UI on a dev site and don’t have the issue there either. weird.

 * Well Im not sure I would call it resolved. If you look at the shortcode above,
   the taxonomy does not get built right. It comes out:
 * taxonomy=”stories-of-impactfocus-area”
 * When it should be:
 * taxonomy=”focus-area”
 * But if there is nothing that can be done, there is nothing that can be done. 
   Thanks for looking anyway.

 * I can’t replicate this issue in 3 different environments.
    Can you let me know
   the exact steps to create the problem?
