 * Not sure if this is because of the WordPress 4.8 update, but the page where I
   have put the BT shortcode has stopped working and is erroring out:
    [http://ukauthors.com/comments-stream/](http://ukauthors.com/comments-stream/)
 * If I remove the BT shortcode the page loads (obviously a blank page but it loads
   without error). Whereas with the BT shortcode I get an error.
 * Advice, please.
    thanks

 * Yes, The image below.
    If I add the shortcode [ bt_comments ] to the page it 
   gives this error:

 * We have checked in 4.8 and it is working perfectly.We need to look into detail
   for the issue.It would be good if you can provide demo server details on [sales@biztechconsultancy.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-has-stopped-working/sales@biztechconsultancy.com?output_format=md)

 * Hi, Thanks for the reply. I’ve put the shortcode back in the page and it’s now
   working correctly! Not sure why it happened and why/how it began working again
   but it is!
 * Curiously, my WordPress site seems quite hit and miss. Without changing anything
   things spontaneously break or stop working. A day ago I wanted to update the 
   config file auth codes and salts and doing this simple task broke the site and
   I had to restore to the day before. My site is fully up to date regarding WP 
   version and all the plugins are up to date so I don’t know why these odd things
   keep happening.
 * thanks anyway. The problem has resolved.
