 * I am experiencing a weird issue with two shortcodes I am trying to place within
   the same page. Shortcode 1 and Shortcode 2 works if Shortcode 1 is placed above
   2. When placing Shortcode 2 above 1 the folders within Shortcode 2 are no longer
   showing up. However, files are still visible. I am using the Simple File List
   Folders extension as well. Any idea what could be causing this?

 * Yes, this is normal. The first list will have all features, but the subsequent
   list will have limited features. Pretty much anything that requires an argument
   in the URL will be disabled.

 * Does this mean that the second iteration will never display folders and just 
   files?

 * Correct. You might work around this by placing subsequent lists in an iframe,
   as these would each be effectively on their own page.
