 * hi there!
 * first, your piece of code is very usefull and does a good job for the most installations
   I have seen!
 * But, what I tried and what seems not to work is adding an answer with a shortcode.
   
   e.g. – the question:
 * is there a manual?
 * and the answer shall be
    the download link which can be posted on general pages
   with the shortcode:
 * [download id=”1″]
 * (wp download manager plugin).
 * In connection with the FAQ plugin only the text “[download id=”1″]” is shown…

 * not sure you can use a shortcode within a shortcode. I know that the download
   manager will allow you to manually place the link (I do myself) and it’ll still
   tie into the counts, etc.

 * First of all, thank you for great plugin…
 * For me shortcodes does not work either. No single shortcode… in FAQ on site it’s
   just written as it was normal text.
 * I’m trying shortcodes for elegantthemes.com theme, maybe that’s problem. Does
   anyone has experience with eleganthemes shortcodes in FAQ Manager?
 * Thank you
