 * I noticed today that the portfolio shortcode has ceased to function. It may be
   a result of the last WordPress release.
 * Has anyone else had this or a similar problem recently?
 * Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

 * Hi there,
 * I’m not having any issue with the portfolio with WP v5.8 and Jetpack v10.0. Could
   you please let us know the exact issue you are facing?
 * Did you try to switch your site temporarily to a default theme ([Twenty Twenty](https://wordpress.org/themes/twentytwenty/))
   and deactivate all plugin except Jetpack to check?

 * Thanks Animesh! I’ve tried all of the standard WP troubleshooting – deactivated
   plugins, changed themes, etc… but the problem persists. The shortcode and parameters
   displays without be executed. You can see it in widget-1 (left) of the footer.
 * I did have some hiccups after the last WP update where it was attempting to use
   the block editor for widgets. I managed to turn off the block editor, but it 
   seems that this problem sprang up as a result.

 * I originally had this in a text widget, but switched it to an custom html widget
   a couple of years ago. With the last update to WP, the custom html widget is 
   not functioning as before, so by switching back to the text widget, it resolved
   the issue.
 * I’m pretty sure it had something to do with the push to block editor, as this
   problem arose after it was forcing it into widget editing.
