    Hi all, I have a problem with my shortcodes. I am trying to get the content text slider shortcodes in the header on the home page. I have tried everything and read all the forums but nothing seems to be working for me. I inserted the code <?php echo do_shortcode('[CTSOP=SETTING1-GROUP1]');?> in index.php but it only prints out the line [CTSOP=SETTING1-GROUP1]. please any help would be appreciated. here is the link to the website. http://duomarketing.co.za/dot/

    check if the plugin really uses shortcode - you will need to have a look into the codes of the plugin files;
    not everything within square brackets is shortcode.

    Hi alchymyth, thanks for your help. can you please be a little bit more specific? what should i exactly be looking for within the codes?

    look for add_shortcode() in all the files of your plugin - if you can't find it, then this is not real shortcode.
