 * I have used the shortcode [current_date format=’Y’] and the year was correctly
   applied to my page.
 * The isse is that when I reopen the page to edit its content, the shortcode is
   not there anymore.
 * Is it normal for the shortcode to disappear from the Edit mode in WordPress? 
   How then will the date update in a year if the shortcode is not there anymore?
 * Are you aware of some incompatibilities between this shortcode and some plugins?
   I’m using GeneratePress theme, GenerateBlocks and the SEOPress plugins.
 * Thank you.
