 * This plugin works pretty well, but I believe it should also add support for processing
   shortcodes.
 * Right now, if you try to add an Image in your category description, it works 
   great! However, if you try to Caption the image, the [caption ...] shortcode 
   is displayed surrounding the image.

 * FYI: to do this, you just need to add this line of code
 * add_filter(‘term_description’, ‘do_shortcode’);

 * [@jason](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jason/), you absolutely ROCK. This
   plugin doesn’t seem to be supported anymore–the developer’s site is down, anyway.
   Your one little line of code was all I needed to save hours and hours more of
   work and frustration. Thank you!!!

 * Hi Jason!
    You’re advice is the only advice I can find to fix the shortcode problem,
   which I am also having. However, I’m a novice when it comes to coding. Where 
   do I add this line of code exactly? Thanks!

 * Version 1.2 brings support for shortcodes (thanks for suggestion) and for oEmbeds(
   bonus).
