    Hi

    I love your plugin but I wanted to enable my own created shortcode with in your widget.

    For example all I have to do is add a filter to make my short code function in a text widget via this method.
    add_filter( 'widget_text', 'do_shortcode');

    I’d like to do the same for your widget but I am unsure what to call you in the “widget_text” field.

    Thanks!

    Hi Robert,
    our plugin automatically applies the shortcodes contained in the text (calling do_shortcode internally), so you don’t need to add a filter. Just define your shortcode as usual, and use it inside your widgets.

    Hi,

    I’m using WordPress 3.9 with Black Studio TinyMCE Widget Version 1.3.3 and Shortcodes Ultimate Version 4.7.2. I can’t seem to get the shortcodes to added to the editor. When I click the SU button, select my shortcode, then click Insert Shortcode, nothing happens.

    Also, the buttons in the text editor are completely missing.

    Is this a problem you may be able to fix?

    Thanks.

    @woodstock128 Next time, please open a new thread, since the one you replied to is marked as resolved and totally unrelated.

    To let Shortcodes Ultimate play together with other plugins, you need to modify the plugin. I suggested this change to the developers of the plugin in their support forum. You may find the thread and the code here.
