 * At first, page displayed as though the plugin wasn’t installed, then when I went
   to edit the page, previewing the updates displayed a page that appeared to have
   opened the DIVs but didn’t close them.

 * Can you provide an example of a page that’s not working? I’ve done extensive 
   testing and it should work, but maybe you’re using the divs in a way I didn’t
   test.

 * I’ve tested it with ID’s, classes, and nested divs. In all instances it works.
 * The old shortcode code is still in there, used by pages that haven’t been edited
   by you. Once you edit one, the new code is used, which stores the actual divs
   in the post content and the shortcodes in a separate field. That way, if the 
   plugin ever gets disabled you don’t display shortcodes in your post content.
 * Make sure you are using [end-div] to close the divs.

 * [@petervandoorn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/petervandoorn/): I’m one
   of the developers of this plugin. Can you give me some more details?
 * If I understand correctly, you did this:
    1. Upgraded the plugin.
    2. Viewed a post with existing [div] and [end-div] shortcodes and the shortcodes
       were not replaced.
    3. Tried to edit the post, but in the preview, <div>s were not closed.
 * Is that correct? Are you using the [end-div] shortcode or [/div] to close your
   <div>s? Can you point me to the URL of the post in question?

 * I have the same problem in 3.2.1, I try to use it to a page in html by replacing
   <div></div> with [div] and [end-div] but it didn’t work…

 * Stergos, are you using the most up-to-date version of this plugin?
 * The code that Dean developed that replaced the shortcodes with actual divs has
   been removed due to issues, but as long as you have the plugin active [div] will
   be replaced with <div> and [end-div] with </div>

 * I have the latest version. I already try the shortcodes as you explain I don’t
   know what is going wrong…
