 * Shortcode Problems // Conflict Problems other Plugins
 * WordPress 4.0 Theme Twentyfourteen
 * First off thanks for the plugin… I haven’t gone through an extensive deactivate
   of other plugin’s to resolve the issue (yet).
 * If I use the plugin… “out of the box” and use it with [https://wordpress.org/plugins/amr-shortcode-any-widget/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/amr-shortcode-any-widget/)
   plugin it does exactly what it is supposed to do… except it then conflicts with
   other plugins like Ultimate Shortcodes, Collapse O Matic, and a couple of others.
   What I do is the other plugins is have a “loop” that basically does what your
   plugin does except the appearance (look) is different. [https://wordpress.org/plugins/amr-shortcode-any-widget/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/amr-shortcode-any-widget/)…
   hasn’t caused problems with any other plugin’s.
 * OK.. with that said… if I use a direct shortcode of your plugin I don’t get conflicts.
   For example `[rpwe limit="10" post_type="post" cat="79" thumb="false" thumb_height
   ="75" thumb_width="125" excerpt="true" length="50" readmore="true" readmore_text
   ="Read More »" styles_default="false"]`
 * But then… those shortcodes I have problems. For example whether or not I use 
   thumbnails options they show all the time. And then the font size is too small
   etc (which I could hard code in CSS… but not going to do that right now).
 * I don’t know if this plugin needs an update..
    I haven’t tried using it directly
   in a sidebar because I don’t use them in my content area.
 * I do appreciate the work you have done. The plugin does work very nicely “out
   of the box” (except for the direct shortcodes) and if not implemented with some
   of the other Post and Page displays I am working with that seem not to have conflicts
   elsewhere.
 * Once again thank you for the hard work you have put into this plugin.
    Regards.

 * Hi There,
    If you use shortcode inside the content, sometimes the css from your
   theme will overide the plugin default style. Maybe I should find another way 
   to resolve this issue.
