 * Probably best searching the plugin directory for a Geo restricting script – I
   imagine it would be easy to get around by using a proxy though.
 * Incidentally if you need help coding shortcodes into the template itself, rather
   than manually adding them to each post then [here’s a tutorial for you](http://www.techdesigns.co.uk/how-to-add-shortcodes-to-a-wordpress-theme/).

   SHORTCODE]”); ?> but i don’t know exactly where i can add this code in my single
   post?

 * > exactly where i can add this code in my single post?
 * where do you want to have the text show?
    – before the post content, or after?
 * what theme are you using?
    does the theme have a **single.php** template?
 * or do you want to use the shortcode directly in the post’s content?
 * does the shortcode come from a plugin?
    if so, from which plugin exactly?

 * try to add the code into single.php (ideally of a child theme) _before _this 
   line:
 *     ```
       <div class="post_info_wrap"><?php the_content(); ?> </div>
       ```
   
 * if you think it is a problem with the theme, please post in [https://wordpress.org/support/theme/osiris](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/osiris)
 * if you think it is a problem with the plugin, please post in
