 * According to the WordPress codex, shortcodes can be coded to allow wrapping other
   shortcodes. Obviously Show/Hide Content was not coded this way. I tried wrapping[
   expires] around the columns shortcode to make part of a page expire and it resulted
   in the page looking like the editor with the shortcodes showing rather than creating
   the columns.
 * Mr. Clements, please make this code change. It would make your otherwise excellent
   plugin much more useful.

 * I found a solution.
 * The “Outerbridge Nested Shortcodes” plugin did just what I wanted, for at least
   my specific case. Now I can have the columns shortcode within the bounds of the
   expires shortcode and have both work.
 * All that is needed is the O.N.S. plugin to be installed and active. Supposedly
   this works for all shortcodes.

 * Sorry for the lack of a response. The new version coming out today will support
   nesting shortcodes inside the new time-restrict shortcode.
