I have a problem: JCE converts the HTML symbols: < and > into HTML name inside SHORTCODE when switching form Code mode to Editor mode. Result: My pages do not work correctly, because the browsers read this as text.

Example in upload: shortcode_issue_1
Becomes in JCE Editor - see upload: shortcode_issue_2

What can I do to prevent this?

Do you have the Protect Shortcode option enabled in Editor Profiles -> Editor Parameters -> Advanced?

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.

Yes, shortcode protection is enable (otherwise I would have a lot of trouble with all my shortcodes) :)

I have JCEv2.9.32

I just tested this issue with "Shortcode Protection" disable - and the effect isn't there anymore.

But this not really a solution for me, because without it I have other problems with codes inside a shortcode, which will be damaged when saving a page.

This seems to be working OK in my tests, but my test content may be a bit limited. Can you send me a login? - https://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/contact/site-login
