What is the ‘exact same shortcode’ you are using in all places?
Update: I can now “see” the text which disappeared on me previously, but two expand/collapse elements are running together, without a paragraph or line break — although they are broken up in the text editor. The other expand/collapse elements remain separate.
All code & HTML (from what I can see in the text editor) is identical in all instances.
The shortcode I am using is what I found on the plugin directory page:
[expand title=”trigger text”]hidden content[/expand]
Is there a reason this shortcode could behave differently, although what I can see of the surrounding code/HTML is the same?
I apologize if I am asking basic questions… trying to sort through what I don’t know!
Cheers,
Alex
Update #2: paragraph breaks disappear.
As a result of my first update, above, I attempted to add <P> between the 2 collapse elements in the text editor. Then I previewed my page again.
The addition of <P> did separate the 2 elements… until I went back into my page editor in the dashboard and made further changes to the page, at which point when I previewed it again, the <P> breaks had disappeared.
Here is what the text editor displays (after the <P> have disappeared, originally placed before [expand title=”Just the Basics…):
- development of a marketing materials style sheet for your product or business, so that all new content and materials integrate seamlessly into your brand, allowing you to focus on strategy and customer engagement

[expand title=”Just the Basics — Review & Revision (Basic)”]

The ideal option for pieces that are ready “for the printer” or for dissemination to the public. Avoid embarrassing mistakes before going into production. Available for proofs if desired.
- copyediting and revision for textual consistency, clarity, and accuracy
- proofreading for spelling, formatting, and punctuation errors

Ideas? Not sure how I can share what this looks like visually with the forum since the page isn’t live yet.

Couple of things. First, always include a link to the page you are having a trouble with. A 10 second look at your source html usually tells us what exactly is going on. Second, it sounds like you are dealing with the infamous wpautop issue. Please check out these threads for a number of solutions to this problem.
Sorry… I didn’t include the URL because said page was in draft, therefore I (as a non-coding layperson) presumed none of this would be visible.
My page is live now at alexoconnell.com/hire-me
I’ll take a look into the wpautop threads.
Thanks.
Thanks, it looks like one of the solutions in the other threads has done the trick! I appreciate it.
