 * Hi
    Have a client that would like to include this in their template header,,,
   I have tried various ways to include but am getting nowhere Tried the following
   php do_shortcode(‘[businesshours closed=”Today is closed.”]Today we work from{{
   TodayOpen}} to {{TodayClose}}[/businesshours]’);
 * but no luck. Can get it to work on a page and in a widget.
    Is this possible?
   Thank you

 * I used this:
 * `<?php echo do_shortcode('[businesshours closed="Today is closed."]Today we work
   from {{TodayOpen}} to {{TodayClose}}[/businesshours]'); ?>`
 * in the header.php file and it worked fine.
 * Hope this helps!
