 * I created and used some shortcodes including such as (for example)
 * [venue]The Sly Fox Hotel[/venue]
    [event]TECHnique[/event] [artist]Biz[/artist]
 * in a post (where there were quite a few short codes used, and things appeared
   to be fine.
 * This evening I created some new short codes (using the same short code handler
   function used for artist, venue, etc) and added a few more uses in the same post,
   and *blink* the content disappears (from the output, not from the source). I 
   thought I might have created some unmatching entries, and spent ages trying to
   find the mistake(s), to no avail – the answer seemed to lie in the number of 
   shortcodes used, the length of (not-in-shortcodes) text, or maybe just the number
   of paragraphs…
 * Now I find other people are having these kinds of nasty problems.
 * It seems pretty arbitrary to me, though I hazard a guess that it has something
   to do with the way that shortcodes are processed internally (and or the regex
   library that is used to implement it).
 * Whatever the cause it, it sucks pretty hard.

 * I only manage to get “not logged in” for the management page(s), even with the
   new Version 0.4.7. :o(
 * I’m thinking this is due to my wp-plugins folder actually being a symbolic link
   to another WordPress installation’s wp-plugins folder, and hence the wrong wp-
   load.php and/or wp-config.php is being accessed in ajaxSetup.php … it’s all a
   bit obscure!
 * [Edit: changed to the full path and now cooking with gas!]
