 * Hi,
 * I just updated this plugin to the laste version and the hole site went down.
   
   I went tho the server and this showed up on the error log: PHP Parse error: syntax
   error, unexpected ‘[‘ in /../wp-content/plugins/custom-content-shortcode/includes/
   modules/comments.php on line 61
 * This line refers to:
    $atts = [‘content’]; // Default field
 * I had to comment it out to bring the website back online.
 * My server’s PHP version is 5.4.24.
 * Hope this helps.
 * Thanks!
