# Shortcode not working?

 * I use the following shortcode on my page:
 * [meet-my-team display_modal=”false”]
 * But it has no impact, e.g. the modal dialog is always on, no matter of the setting.
   I also tried “no” instead of “false” and a couple of other variants, to no success.
 * I’m right assuming that this setting should disable the link to the individual
   team members page in a modal dialog, e.g. the page would be a simple grid with
   just images and caption (which is what I am trying to accomplish)?

 * Hi fberzau,
 * Sorry for the long wait in support. I’m working on this plugin on the side and
   I have been overwhelmed at my day job.
 * Actually display_modal=”false” should disable the modal dialog. It works for 
   me. Do make sure that you have updated to the latest version because I only just
   added it into the latest version. In the meantime, let me re-check my codebase
   to confirm if there are any problems.
 * Have a great day.

 * Hi Buooy,
 * I am running the latest version 1.1.3. I don’t see anything else I’ve possibly
   done wrong. If you want to check, the page in question is on [http://sterneninsel.com/mmt/](http://sterneninsel.com/mmt/).
 * Thanks, Frank

 * Same here, I’m working on the KLEO theme and the shortcode does not do the trick.
   It’s a shame the support is not very helpful, most topics are unanswered and 
   this plug in could be perfect with a few updates. I’m even willing to pay for
   pro feature, as long as it WORKS. Please help us.

 * Just tried using the “display_modal” attribute to turn off the modal window popup,
   and it does not work. The “parent_container_id” and “disable_modal_centering”
   have no affect as well. Could be a very cool plugin, and I too would be very 
   willing to pay for a “pro” version if it was fully operational.
