 * I used the showhide plugin on my localhost which seems to be working. But it 
   is not working in my live site. There has been an update to the plugin 2 days
   before. Is is possible the update has broken the plugin. I checked the content
   of the plugin which seems to be the same as in my working localhost.Not sure 
   what is causing this behavior.
    Would really appreciate your help. Thank you.

 * Tried using the old plugin as well. Didnt work in server but works fine in my
   localhost.
 * The showhide shortcode is not being replaced by the div it is supposed to replace
   with and appears as it is in the post simply like text as shown below:
    [showhide
   type=”post” more_text=”>>>” less_text=”<<<“] APPLE [/showhide]
 * instead of being replaced by div.
 * Thank you.

 * Is that a site I can see? Might be a broken JS on your site that is causing it.

 * Hello Chan,
 * The site link is: [http://www.core-clinical.net/consulting-areas/](http://www.core-clinical.net/consulting-areas/)
   
   There are no javascript errors that are shown in the console though.
 * Thank you.
