 * I installed your plugin and cannot figure out how to make it work. On the page
   where I waned to use it, I placed he following shortcode [show_more more=”Show
   More” less=”Show Less”] Content [/show_more]. What actually displays is ”Show.
   I did not list the page where it is because this is a live site and I had to 
   remove it for now.

 * I’m not shute but maybe you have to take care of the signs [ ” ]. Copy this code
   and try again.
 * `[show_more more="Show More" less="Show Less"]`
