 * Hi
 * I think there’s some inconsistency in your code.
 * when using padding, columns are well shown:
    [one_half padding=”1px 1px 1px 1px”]
   1[/one_half] [one_half_last padding=”1px 1px 1px 1px”]2[/one_half_last] you get
   this code:
 *     ```
       <div class="content-column one_half">
       <div style="padding:1px 1px 1px 1px;"></div>
       </div>
       <br></br>
       <div class="content-column one_half last_column">
       <div style="padding:1px 1px 1px 1px;"></div>
       </div>
       <div class="clear_column"></div>
       ```
   
 * When doing the same without the padding:
    [one_half]1[/one_half] [one_half_last]
   2[/one_half_last] you get this code:
 *     ```
       <div class="content-column one_half">1</div>
       <br></br>
       <div class="content-column one_half last_column">2</div>
       <div class="clear_column"></div>
       ```
   
 * and columns are not shown and appear as single rows
    when removing here the `
   <br></br>` the columns are well showed again.
 * Hope this can help to better the plugin, which is a very helpful one!
 * Grz,
    Kristof
