I've recently added a theme options panel to a site I'm working on using the tutorial here: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/wordpress/how-to-create-a-better-wordpress-options-panel/. However I am having an issue with the Contact Form 7 shortcode disappearing when inserted into a field.
For example when I try and post[contact-form-7 id="90" title="Contact form 1"] it automatically get trimmed to [contact-form-7 id= which obviously causes the code in my template to not display the form.
Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to solve it?
That doesn't look like a very good tutorial to me. This one should be considered the definitive guide: http://www.chipbennett.net/2011/02/17/incorporating-the-settings-api-in-wordpress-themes/
is the contact-form-7 plugin still active?

@esmi thanks for the link I'll try that tuturial instead and see if it makes a difference.
@timDesain seems to be. The only reason I use it is the plug-in is the only one I've found that with the help of another plug-in records all inputed data into the database so that it can be exported out for marketing lists.
