 * This looks like a really nice plugin. I’m testing it right now, it works so far,
   but what I don’t understand is how to add a shortcode using TinyMCE.
    I use TinyMCE
   Advanced. After installing the User Shortcode Plus, there seems to be no button“
   Add User Shortcode” like mentioned on the third screenshot on your plugin description.
   Am I missing something?

 * Hello [@marionfw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marionfw/),
 * I just tested with TinyMCE Advanced + User Shortcodes Plus and it appears to 
   be working as intended with WordPress v4.7.3.

 * Hi Kyle,
 * thanks for your proompt reply. I checked again, and the strange thing is: in 
   an existing page of post, there is indeed the button as intended. But on a new
   post or page, there’s no button untill (the draft version of) the post of page
   is saved.
    I checked both on my live site and an off line testing site I mainly
   use for testing new plugins, an it’s the same on both sites.
 * No big deal, and now I know, I can work around. Otherwise, really nice plugin!

 * Ah, new posts, ok. There seems to have been a bug with the TinyMCE button and
   new posts.
 * I just released v2.0.1, which resolves this issue.
