Hey,

First of all, the plugin is great help to me. I have an issue with the plugin for which I don’t know if the plugin is compatible with this feature or not.

I have shortcodes in my post titles [current_date format=’F Y’] to show the current month and year. The shortcode getting working with the AIOSEO plugin correctly as it has the option to execute shortcode but I can not find the same option or relevant one in the Contextual Related Post plugin.

So I want to know if it can work or not? If yes, how?

You can add this code in a functional plugin, your theme’s functions.php or via a plugin like Code Snippets.
```
add_filter( 'crp_title', 'do_shortcode' );
```

Furthermore, I am using the below shortcode plugin to show month & year in a post title.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/shortcode-for-current-date/

It is executing in post titles but showing as [current_date format=’F, Y’] in a related posts list.

As you said functions.php as a last line.

Are you able to test this out with this plugin?

Sorry for late reply,

Have tried Code Snippets plugin but it didn’t work. Any other solution you have?

Thanks

@mohsin786 I’m lost to be honest. This should be working as it works in my install so I can’t figure out why it isn’t in yours.

One last option is to use a php file with that code in mu-plugins which are always loaded.

Do you have a caching plugin by any chance? And, if you’ve enabled the CRP cache, then you’ll need to clear it via the Tools page.

The shortcode is now executing after I delete and re-installed the plugin. It is strange but works.

Thanks for your responses.
