Some shortcodes don't work in Slides

    Most of the shortcodes I use are from the plugin “Shortcodes Ultimate”
    I use compatibility mode on that plugin so that it has a unique shortcode that doesn’t normally conflict with any other theme or plugin (gn_)

    But when I broke up a post just now into several sections, a couple of the shortcodes didn’t work (they both use “Tabs”, the shortcode being [gn_tabs], [gn_tab], etc)

    So I can’t break up the posts properly because those sections are in the middle of the post.

    I wonder why it’s doing that..
    It seems to allow all the other kind of shortcodes (buttons, lists, custom icons, etc are all working) but not tabs..

    I guess if I can figure out my other support question (how to not include content in the slides), I’ll be able to still use it on these posts, because somehow I should be able to leave those sections out of the slides? I dunno 🙂

    Hi again @happyches,

    If I had to guess, I would say that the problem is because those short codes call some unique javascript on pages where they are included, and because the slides only call the content of a page and not the javascript, it breaks the functionality. One way to test this theory would be to try one of hte offending shortcodes on the first slide of a multi-slide post. If that works, it probably means my theory is correct… But if my theory pans out, it probably means that those shortcodes will never work on any slides other than the first one and that the two plugins aren’t really built for use with each other.
