 * When I insert a button, then click on it again to open the settings up, the settings
   are lost, reverted back to default. Except the button text, which sometimes contains
   HTML from the button. See here: [https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5exS_8umrTLX25fcnMwd1V1QUE/edit?usp=drivesdk](https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5exS_8umrTLX25fcnMwd1V1QUE/edit?usp=drivesdk)

 * Hey again, can you tell me does this happen every time, or sometimes?
 * What browser / OS are you using?
 * Thanks!

 * Using latest stable version of Chrome on Windows 7. It happens every time. As
   soon as I insert the button, I can click it to go back into the settings, and
   it’s lost all it’s settings, as described/pictured above.

 * Strange I have the exact same setup… the only thing I can think is that some 
   JavaScript is interfering or another plugin…
 * No one likes to do this, but you could try disabling your other plugins or try
   on a different install? Its odd because I’m on Window 7 using Chrome :/
