or we could just create a specification for the inner and outer with two separate shortcode calls:

[color-box]
[color-box-inner]
[/color-box-inner]
[/color-box]

So yes, it does seem impossible given the limitation of one shortcode to do it all, but it is not impossible to create multiple shortcodes within one plugin.

well I suppose I could create a second version of the plugin with a different name ??

Ok thanks for the response. I see its more of an issue of how shortcodes are translated than anything else. Probably supplying a parameter like an ID value would not help sort out where one shortcode ends inside anther callout.
Thanks!
