 * Since the last update the html output of the shortcode has some strange strings
   in it which destroys the whole website:
 * <div class=”bfd-single-download” id=”bfd-single-download-7447″>
    array(14) { [“
   bfd-default-css”]=> string(1) “1” [“bfd-background-colour-picker”]=> string(7)“#
   041111” [“bfd-font-colour-picker”]=> string(7) “#ffffff” [“bfd-hover-colour-picker”]
   => string(7) “#25aaac” [“bfd-file-icon-colour-picker”]=> string(7) “#ffffff” [“
   bfd-file-size-display”]=> string(1) “1” [“bfd-force-new-tab”]=> string(1) “1”[“
   bfd_type_textfield”]=> string(0) “” [“bfd_size_textfield”]=> string(0) “” [“bfd_published_textfield”]
   => string(0) “” [“bfd_download_textfield”]=> string(0) “” [“bfd_downloaded_textfield”]
   => string(0) “” [“bfd_time_textfield”]=> string(0) “” [“bfd_times_textfield”]
   => string(0) “” }
 * What is that?

 * Hi,
 * I have to apologise for that, I left a debug call in the code, I will push out
   an update tonight (in about 9hours when I get home from work) in the mean time,
   you can download a clean copy from [https://www.nikhaddon.com/better-file-download](https://www.nikhaddon.com/better-file-download).
 * FTP into your hosting and extract the package to the wp-content>plugins folder
   and overwrite the existing copy.
 * Sorry for the inconvenience 🙁
 * Cheers,
 * Nik
