Same here. I am new withnthis plugin and I was trying to follow the instructions on video, but they make non sense now. Hope you can solve it soon
I came up with a different solution to the problem. I discovered that the Chrome browser, which I have always used, for security reasons greatly reduced the length allowed for code. 2000 characters only for whatever they determine to be a URL. Which when you are using a plugin like this one that goes across many pages …well problems are bound to pop up. I discovered the issue when I noticed other sites – not my own – are having the same issue on the public end of their site and I deduced the problem by testing Edge (Safari) and Firefox. Safari works fine. Along with that I added ta plugin that switches from WordPress’s Gutenberg to Classic. Safari plus a plugin that does that makes your plugin work fine.
My interim workaround was a whole bunch of CSS. Ugh ugly code wise and impractical for future edits. I am glad to have your plugin back!
