 * I just wrote a new post on one of my blogs with code in it. Saved it and the 
   display on the frontend was perfect.
    I then made changes to the post, saved 
   and now all code looks like this: `[[pre class="brush: php; gutter: true; first-
   line: 1; highlight: []; html-script: false"]]czoxNDE6XCImbHQ7P3BocCBlY2hvICRjdXN0b21bXFwmIzAzOTtOYWFtQ3VzdG9tRmllbGRcXCYjMDM5O107ICMgdmVydmFuZyBcXCYjMDN7WyYqJl19OTtOYWFtQ3VzdG9tRmllbGRcXCYjMDM5OyB2b29yIGRlIG5hYW0gZGllIGplIGhldCB2ZWxkIGdlZ2V2ZW4gaGVidCA/

 * Reverting to the first saved post doesn’t do anything, since the code in that
   post is the same as above.
 * I’m using the last version of the plugin btw (1.7.3).
