 * Hi [@dijtex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dijtex/), at the moment the 
   Header HTML block doesn’t support shortcodes but I think we could add this feature
   in the next update.
 * Stay tuned 😉

 * [@dijtex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dijtex/) well, that depends on 
   what you are trying to do, are you referring to the Header HTML element and that
   you want to make it to display the shortcode?

 * Hey [@dijtex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dijtex/), here’s the code you
   need for making this possible.Replace the contents of `inc/panel-builder/header/
   text/view.php` file [with the following snippet](https://gist.github.com/andreiglingeanu/bd09635a9f3b18663d30e9256e736a93).
   Don’t bother putting it in a child theme, just edit the parent theme. We’ll change
   this in the next update and the change will become permanent.
 * With this in place, the shortcodes inserted in the text Header Builder item will
   be properly expanded.
 * Hopefully this will solve your case.
 * Best regards!
