 * Hi,
 * When I use the Guteberg Block Editor and insert a Shortcode, then I see only 
   the Shortcode, but not how it looks.
 * Is this normal?
 * And another Queston:
    Do I have to insert in Gutenberg a Shortcode Block first,
   to insert a Shortcode Ultimate?
 * Thanks a lot.

 * Yes, in the editor, you’ll only see the shortcode–you’ll have to preview the 
   page to see the element generated.
 * You can use the shortcode block or include shortcodes as part of a text block–
   I find they sometimes generate differently, and the desired result can only be
   achieved when using it one way or another way–definitely experiment!
