 * Hi
 * First of all Welcome to WP 🙂
    And i think you need to add double comma around
   id instead of just id number. Do like this;
 *     ```
       <?php echo do_shortcode('[espro-slider id="45"]'); ?>
       ```
   
 * If it does not work for you than i will suggest to contact to the particular 
   plugin’s support forum. They can help you in better way. Because it might be 
   issue with your plugin settings.
 * Good Luck!

 * Hi,
    In my Custom theme alone it is not working. In WP’s default theme its working
   fine. I created widget and menus using,
 *     ```
       function arphabet_widgets_init() {
   
       	register_sidebar( array(
       		'name'          => 'MSB Widget',
       		'id'            => 'home_right_1',
       		'before_widget' => '<div>',
       		'after_widget'  => '</div>',
       		'before_title'  => '<h2 class="rounded">',
       		'after_title'   => '</h2>',
       	) );
   
       }
       add_action( 'widgets_init', 'arphabet_widgets_init' );
       ```
   
 * Am not getting my custom menus when i called in header.php as
    `<?php wp_nav_menu('
   header1'); ?>` Now Slider images also not working. Am using image-slider(lite)
   plugin.
