Shortcodes in the front page widgets

    Was following along with your documentation here (http://responsive-tabs-theme-for-wp.com/?p=55) but it seems to break my site. When I add you suggested php line in the first line after the opening php tag my site comes up blank. Nothing appears, the theme doesn’t display I just get a completely white screen. If I remove your suggested php edit the site appears fine.

    Any ideas?

    Your theme is awesome and I really need this shortcode tab functionality. I would prefer not to have to mess with other plugins to achieve this so I’m really hoping this can be resolved.

    My mistake! I was editing the main functions.php file and not the themes functions.php file…..apparently it’s time for me to stop working and go home today.

    Have to apologize for my first question – that was just silly of me. But I can’t seem to get the short code for pages working on any tabs.

    I’ve tried using both the Front Page Text Widget as well as the plain old text Widget and I’m not really sure what I’m missing. You’ll notice there is an issue when selecting tabs because the site is a sub but I will be working to resolve this tomorrow.

    Any suggestions?

    BigBigL, sorry I didn’t see this question in a timely way — not sure how I missed it.

    I like what you are doing on your site.

    Short codes should work fine in the Front Page Text Widget and elsewhere if you add that line that you identified in the instructions above. That’s a great way to use the Front Page Text Widget.

    I can’t diagnose your problem with the information I have so far, but feel to supply more — my direct email is willbrownsberger@gmail.com. Please do feel free to ping me directly if you’d like.
