    since I have upgraded to v2.7.4

    1) the shortcode composer has disappeared from the ‘settings’ page
    2) there are no instances of the plugin listed but I have at least 5 instances on site pages.
    3) Uploads are failing without error messages

    on my dev site which is running v2.7.3 i have no problems

    Hi,

    please update to version 2.7.6. It addresses the issues with the shortcode composer.

    Regarding the failed uploads, check again with the new version. If it fails again, then set debugmode=”true” and adminmessages=”true” inside the shortcode and tell me if you see any more messages when a file fails.

    Thanks for the update
    I confirm my uploads are working again and I now have a full list of plugin instances on the settings page.

    But I still don’t have a ‘shortcode composer’ button on my settings page. I only have buttons for ‘Settings’, ‘File browser’, ‘view log’ and ‘sync database’

    Yes that is true,

    shortcode composer has changed, there is no button in settings anymore. There are two ways to open it:

    1. There is a Plugin Instances section in plugin’s settings in Dashboard, where you see pages including the plugin. If you press on “Plugin 1” it will show you the shortcode composer for that instance of the plugin. Changes you make are directly reflected on the plugin. If you don’t see any record in Plugin Instances table, then let me know.

    2. Open the page where you have the plugin. When you hover your mouse over the plugin, you will see a yellow button on the top-left corner. Press it and will open the shortcode composer.

    Hi Nickolas
    thanks
    I found it via option 1.

    And I eventually found the ‘yellow’ button on the published page. But when i clicked on it no new window (or tab) opened – just nothing, I also assume this ‘yellow’ button only appears on the published page if the logged in user is an administrator. I’m using chrome and v3.0.0 of your plugin

    so it seems to me that there is no way to create the shortcode before adding just the ‘basic’ shortcode to a page and publishing that page. Once published you have to ‘edit’ the shortcode via the yellow button or the listed instance.

    after version 2.7.6 there is a button below Plugin Instances in Dashboard that you can use to add the shortcode to any page or post automatically,

    afterwards you can use the shortcode composer.

    Best Regards
