 * Just to advise. I updated from Achievement 3.4.1 to 3.5 last night.
 * Right after the update, my posts that show achievements stopped processing the
   shortcode used in the achievements to format the display.
 * WP: 3.7.1 (Multisite) (Theme is **Razor** from Themeforest)
    BP: 1.8.1
 * Uninstalled 3.5 and reinstalled 3.4.1 and everything was back to normal. (shortcodes
   processed properly).

 * Just to elaborate – these are theme specific shortcodes that ceased working with
   Achievements 3.5

 * Hmm. I don’t recall changing the shortcodes in 3.5, other than removing one of
   the shortcodes that came with Achievements. I doubt that would have broken all
   shortcodes. Interesting.
 * Did you update or change or add or remove or delete or change settings on ANY
   other plugin, theme, or file, or part of WordPress at the same time?
 * Multisite – how was the plugin activated? Network-wide, or on an individual site?

 * The plugin is activated on multi-site. I do not believe any other changes were
   made other than an update to WP 3.7.1 (which coincided with the 3.5 update)
 * I can demonstrate that Achievements 3.5 breaks the shortcode for the particular
   theme that I am using, but rolling back to 3.4.1 resolves the issue. (So I am
   pretty confident that the conflict is related to the latest release)

 * Unless of course 3.5 doesn’t work with 3.7.1 (but did 3.7), but that’s pretty
   unlikely.
    Can you email me about this? Need to dive into some debugging.
