 * I loved the idea of more shortcodes. However, after installing this plugin all
   of my shortcodes that came with the theme that I purchased and that are already
   put in my blog (which are a lot) do not work. I have tried everything. Still 
   nothing is working.
 * Is there anyway I can fix the problem?
 * Thanks

   None of my shortcodes work..

 * Don’t forget to save settings. Use special shortcode names – [gn_button] instead

 * This is tabs code for your theme. My plugin will not work with this code.
 * Use next code for my plugin:
 *     ```
       [gn_tabs]
       [gn_tab title="Tab title"] Tab content [/gn_tab]
       [/gn_tabs]
       ```
   
 * Try this code in compatibility mode for your theme and for default theme.
 * Post here results.

 * I liked the looked of your shortcodes. After installing plug-in it caused my 
   shortocodes to not work.
 * So how do I get my old ones to work? Or do I need to change all of them to [gn_tabs]?

 * If you want to use old shortcodes, just disable this plugin.
    Or if you want 
   to use shortcodes provided by with my plugin, you need to use right code for 
   it.

 * They where originally image sliders.
 * [tabs slidertype=”images”] [imagetab width=”” height=””]Content goes here[/imagetab][/
   tabs]
 * Since they don’t work anymore can I just use your slider?

   tried to uninstall and reinstall my theme. Nothing is working.
