Can’t display more than one widget

    Hello,

    I am trying to insert two widgets (and even more if possible) with different values, but it seems only the last one is visible and a strange “empty widget” appears. On the example page link, there should be two elements in this order:

    • #currency-bcc-6596790fe3bc3 : that is before the lorem ipsum text but is not showing at all
    • #currency-bcc-6596790fe3e2b : that is after the text, working but there is a empty element right after

    I tried several configuration but I am a bit lost…

    Here are some config:

    • WordPress: 6.4.2
    • Theme: Betheme
    • Your extension: 3.0.3
    • Php: 8.0.29

    Thank you very much for this very useful tool and the help in advance.

    Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out and for using our Currency Converter Widget.

    We are aware of the issue you’re experiencing with inserting multiple widgets via shortcodes. This limitation was introduced as part of our recent security update in version 3.0.3, where we patched a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. To enhance security, we had to restrict the functionality to display only one shortcode widget at a time.

    We understand this change might be inconvenient, and we’re exploring solutions. However, creating a new widget system that supports multiple instances without compromising security will take some time, and currently, we do not have an estimated timeframe for this.

    In the meantime, you have a couple of options:

    1. Revert to version 3.0.2: Please note that this version is not patched for the XSS vulnerability, so use it with caution. DOWNLOAD
    2. Use sidebar widgets: Instead of shortcodes, you can use sidebar widgets, which will allow you to display multiple currency converter widgets without issues.

    We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding as we work towards a more robust and secure solution.
