 * This shortcode not working for me, I only see first <div> element in source code,
   let me know if I’m using correct shortcode.

 * This is probably a bit late but the answer may help somebody.
 * That shortcode has several problems which is why it’s failing to parse properly.
   Also some of the parameters specified have invalid values. Here’s why it is not
   working for you:
    - Some of the quotation marks are not the standard quote character code which
      is why the markup is breaking. I don’t know if this is a copy paste or forum
      formatting error.
    - the flat parameter value should be quoted and not followed by a semicolon
    - Formatting of numbers should be done using the format parameter. start and
      end values cannot contain comma separators
    - I’m not sure what the aim is with the tick multiplier. But the tick_multiplier
      value should be no less than 1 and again no extraneous formatting
 * Anyway, in summary a working version of that shortcode would look like this:
 * `[jellyfish_counter digits=12 start=495521323456 end=0 direction="down" timestamp
   ="2016-12-15 16:58:00" interval=1 tick_multiplier=1 flat="true" digit_style="
   background: transparent; color: blue;" format="0,000,000.00000"]`
