 * Here’s my problem
 * I have a shortcode which adds a shopping cart to any page i choose.
 * Problem is that when the page with the shopping cart shows on the front page 
   as a summary decription the shortcode also shows.
 * I want to keep the function of the shortcode but hide the text from any summary
   description.
 * any ideas?

 * Basicall same issue here… Is there no information or support on this? It seems
   like a pretty big oversight. It seems logical to me that the preview on the blogroll
   would hide shortcodes who are not complete, so that the code isn’t showing. I
   don’t want my readers, few as they may be, seeing the naked rear end of the code
   that is supposed to display a galley… is there a shortcode to hide a section 
   from the preview?
