 * Entering the following into the wordpress editor:
 *     ```
       if (true)
       {
           dosomething(1);
       }
       ```
   
 * Results in:
 *     ```
       [crayon-530bc194ab4aa032760903  ]if (true)
       {
           dosomething(1);
       }
       [/crayon]
       ```
   
 * where the `[/crayon]` tags are visible.
 * May this be a CSS styling problem?
 * Regards,
    Marc

 * resseting the plugin settings appeared to fix the problem.
