Hello @azragh ,
The issue with the description not changing, even after you remove and save it, may be due to editing the protected area settings while the shortcode itself still contains the instruction attribute.
For example, if your shortcode looks like this:
[passster password=”123″ area=”123″ instruction=”This is the description.”]
…the text in the instruction attribute will always take priority.
To apply changes from the dashboard, you can either edit or completely remove the instruction attribute in your shortcode:
[passster password=”123″ area=”123″]
In this case, the instruction set under WordPress Dashboard → Passster → General → Instruction will be used instead.
Regarding the weird characters you mentioned, we are currently working on a fix and will release it once it’s fully ready.
Warm regards,
Teo

My shortcode didn’t exist – I was using the gutenberg block (which renders the description correctly in the editor btw). 😅 First I had the same output after switching to shortcode ([passster password=”xxx” area=”1384″]).. Then I saved the description settings again – now it works for the shortcode, but the block still oupupts weird stuff.. 🤔
