 * I am using the latest version (1.7.0). Some automatic updates happened over the
   past weeks.
    The insertion of the HTML in a page using a shortcode has stopped
   working. Any clue what the problem might be?

 * It would help if you post website address and screenshot of settings.

 * not sure how the website address would help, but the page that stopped
    working
   is:
 * [http://040energie.nl/040zon/zonnepanelen-opbrengst-check/](http://040energie.nl/040zon/zonnepanelen-opbrengst-check/)
 * The page is working again using another plugin at the moment.
    Note: it worked
   before using ad inserter but it just stopped; no HTML was inserted anymore. Simply
   nothing, like the short-code was ignored.
 * Don’t know how to upload a picture here.
    All settings are off except the shortcode
   setting.

 * Not sure what you mean by page types; see picture.
    I am using it on a regular
   page (url provided already).

 * Well, you don’t have enabled any of page types (posts, static pages, homepage,…)
 * Enable at least Posts.
 * Until few versions ago shorcodes did not take into account enabled page types.
   This was recently fixed and might be the cause for your problem.
