Hi @benwbm,
Thanks for your message.
If the shortcode is created via a 3rd-party plugin, it may not show as BNFW renders the email from the notification, not from the same front-end view that a shortcode may render on.
As a first port of call, can you check that in Notifications > Settings, your shortcode is set to show?
The WordPress Gallery function? Is that not a WordPress function?
Is this a different shortcode than the post-content short code?

Hi @benwb,
BNFW doesn’t render shortcodes by default as there’s no default styling included in the emails so it’s likely that a shortcode that contains a design, such as the column/box layout of a gallery, wouldn’t look good in an email without additional CSS added by the user.
It can render the shortcodes and output them in an email if you wish though. If the option in Notifications > Settings is set correctly and the gallery shortcode isn’t output in any form in your notification, please let me know and post a screenshot of your notification and the resulting email that is generated and I can investigate.
I am not sure I totally follow 🙂
Let me try to explain:
1. I make a WordPress post, it has a gallery in it.
2. I want the new post notification post to send to family and friends who want it.
But, when this happens it looks great except the gallery is missing.
How do I get the gallery in there like it is in the WordPress post?
I had this all working with feedbruner and they shut it down.

Can you let me know what your setting for the above is?
Sweet, that fixed it, thank you!
The CSS isn’t quite right but good enough 🙂
