    Hello,
    I’ve a couple of situations to handle with this very plugin.
    1. It is already installed and working on a specific page but not on new pages. The shortcodes
    [CBC country=”in” show=”y”] I can see this[/CBC]
    Displays nothing!!!

    2. How to a hide an URL or page through Embed Forms from specific countries?
    A quick response will be much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    I had the same issue and took me a while to figure this out.
    I did what you did I think – copied shortcode text from FAQ.
    Look at quotation characters:
    [CBC country=”in” show=”y”] I can see this[/CBC]

    Now if you just type it in on you keyboard they will look slightly different. They must been seen as two different ascii characters and with the one from FAQ doesn’t work, but when you type it in it works fine.

    @jp0202
    Okay so now I wrote it manually:
    [CBC country=”in” show=”n”] This should not be seen from India [/CBC]

    Still, shows up and doesn’t hide the content.Will something be within a single quote?

    Also, I am getting this on the Dashboard of the Plugin –
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    Important notice:
    You need to go to the main plugin Settings page to enable the plugin features as they are no longer enabled by default.
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    but can’t see any changes there.

    Yeah, you need to click on Settings and tick the option to enable Enable Content by Country Feature (1st from the top). Not sure why this is required to do as it’s the main purpose of this plugin but hey ho. Don’t forget to save the settings.

    @jp202 – I am still stuck with it, doesn’t work with single quote (‘) either :'(
    Is there a way out? But it works fine on another page with default format. How come that be possible?
    Also, is there any other suitable plugin or process that can block a particular country from viewing a particular page ? That will be very helpful!
