It is not supposed to list invoices. * To make it work you just need to put it to some page where you want SINGLE invoice view to appear. Then create new invoice and go to view it online. Invoice information will appear in place where the shortcode is. * Thanks. * Thread Starter [marcusipp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marcusipp/) * (@marcusipp) * [11 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-not-working-79/#post-5277949) * Yes, I am aware of it’s purpose – it does not work. My use of invoices in the plural was referring to any individual invoice. * It does not work * Here is the page it is coded on: [http://www.inthezonenj.com/invoice/](http://www.inthezonenj.com/invoice/) * If you provide me your email address, I will create a test invoice and send to you so you can test * Plugin Contributor [Anton Korotkoff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anton-korotkoff/) * (@anton-korotkoff) * [11 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-not-working-79/#post-5277968) * ok * [anton.korotkov@usabilitydynamics.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-not-working-79/anton.korotkov@usabilitydynamics.com?output_format=md) * I need admin access as well to test options. * Thanks. * Thread Starter [marcusipp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marcusipp/) * (@marcusipp) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-not-working-79/#post-5278017) * I am just seeing this.

I am afraid WP-Invoice conflicts with some of them. You need to disable ALL the plugins except WP-Invoice and test again. If it works then start activating plugins back one by one and test WP-Invoice after each activation. That way you’ll be able to find one that conflicts. * Let me know after this. * Thanks. * [masse001](https://wordpress.org/support/users/masse001/) * (@masse001) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-not-working-79/#post-5278065) * I am having the same problem. The short code [wp-admin] isn’t working. I disabled all of the plugins as suggested but still no luck. * Plugin Contributor [Anton Korotkoff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anton-korotkoff/) * (@anton-korotkoff) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-not-working-79/#post-5278066) * How do you use it? * [masse001](https://wordpress.org/support/users/masse001/) * (@masse001) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-not-working-79/#post-5278067) * Sorry, that should say [wp-invoice]. I am putting the short code into a page I created. Then, I created a sample invoice and emailed it. When I click on the emailed link it takes me back to the page I created and only displays [wp-invoice]. No invoice information. * Plugin Contributor [Anton Korotkoff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anton-korotkoff/) * (@anton-korotkoff) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-not-working-79/#post-5278068) * Find an option on settings page that says Turn off compatibility mode. And try changing it. * Thanks * [masse001](https://wordpress.org/support/users/masse001/) * (@masse001) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-not-working-79/#post-5278069) * That didn’t work either unfortunately. Any thing else I can try? * Plugin Contributor [Anton Korotkoff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anton-korotkoff/) * (@anton-korotkoff) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-not-working-79/#post-5278070) * Then try some of the default themes please. If it works then it means your theme does not support WP-Invoice. But I think we will be able to fix it later. * Let me know. Thanks.
