    I seem to recall when I first downloaded this plugin the ability to use shortcodes inside other shortcodes with the pro version. I am trying to find out where I read this or if it’s even true because I have one bit of html with shortcodes that will only work if placed directly into the text editor. I want to use a shortcode with manual text input fields that accept these shortcodes or better yet a shortcode with the necessary shortcodes already added. Neither one works at the moment. With the raw html in the editor I cannot switch between visual and text editors without wrecking the code hence the reason why I am devoted this plugin – I like encasing everything in shortcodes and preventing the editor from making a mess – and before it’s worked every time. Is there anything I am doing wrong or is this even possible in the free version?

    I’m not sure.

    I need to get an update out and will try to push it in the next few days. while I’m doing that I’ll check on the nesting for you.

    I’d like the shortcode in shortcodes too, trying to setup a modal popup from within Caldera forms.

    Hello I missed the notification of these replies. I am happy to hear that you are still updating this plugin and willing to look in on the nesting. I am still interested in this but I found a workaround to the problem above. Since the shortcode I was trying to nest is one I created I was able to merge the two shortcodes I wanted nested into one shortcode by transferring the coding. Worked in a pinch!
