 * Good afternoon, I searched the forum but did not find a specific answer to my
   question. I’m using TablePress to make specific tables for each user, WP-Members
   and Custom Content Shortcodes to create extra fields in the profile of users 
   and display the data of these fields on the front-end, as an exclusive area for
   each user. I’ve tried to use a table shortcode on User’s Biography box and in
   a custom box from WP-Members but none of them works and the shortcode appears
   like text on the front-end. Also i’ve tried a lot of codes from answers in the
   forum, but without success. Is there a simple way to allow shortcode on profile
   fields? Mainly of the TablePress!
 * Thanks in advance!

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * All that TablePress can do here is to register the Shortcodes. Evaluating them
   is then a task for the plugins that show the profile fields on the frontend. 
   You should therefore ask the developers of those other plugins whether their 
   plugins support Shortcodes.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
