    Hi, what do you mean with this update?

    To insert php shortcodes is the most important feature for my websites. So this feature will be deactivated?

    You can use code snippets in place of the old [insert_php][/insert_php] function, where you directly inserted the PHP code between these tags. This feature poses a major security risk and has been strongly requested by the www.ads-software.com repository to remove it. Using PHP snippets will solve any of your problems. We apologize for the inconvenience. You can also use older versions of the plugin, they are still available for download.

    Hi, I’m getting a “If you have a moment, please let us know why you are deactivating.” message at the bottom of the Plugins list that cannot be clicked after the update to v2.5.1 AND I cannot deactivate the plugin within the Plugins list.

    Thanks,

    If I rename the folder in the hosting, (e.g. old-insert.php) the message disappears and the plugin seems to function. But that is not good for future updates.
