    Hi Alex,

    I have been trying to embedd a readme from my github page on my personal homepage, but I can’t get it to work. I have deactivated all other plugins, still no success. I have been using this shortcode:

    [embedGitHubReadme owner=”mluerig” repo=”iso-cv”]

    Do you have any idea about what is wrong?

    Cheers
    Moritz

    Sounds good! Thanks for working through everything with me! Hopefully it gets figured out!

    Thanks again too for using the plugin!

    okay, this is reeeally strange:
    I checked the readme of my repo “iso-cv” (the one that wouldn’t be parsed) for markdown that could cause the problem, but I didn’t find anything.
    Then I made a new repo (“test-cv”) that was just a copy of iso-cv, and used the shortcode to embedd it. worked fine!
    Then I deleted iso-cv from github, and renamed test-cv to iso-cv. I changed the shortcode back to iso-cv, but this again wouldn’t work. Now, test-cv has been renamed, BUT using a shortcode with test-cv still works while iso-cv doesn’t.
    I am completely lost as to where in this the error lies. How can the shortcode still parse the readme from a repo that doesn’t exist anymore – is it still cached somewhere?

    Sorry for throwing all this at you, I hope it makes sense.
