Shortcodes not working (page, post, widget)

    Hi

    firstly, nice simple plugin.

    I do however have issues getting the shortcodes to work which is quite puzzling. I have tried pasting [vsel] into posts, pages or widgets – no result. I also made a new page template with this code <?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[vsel-all-events]’ ); ?> but again no luck.

    I tried using other wordpress shortcodes, they seem to work. Jetpack shortcode embeds is activated, Buddypress version 2.82, wordpress v 4.7.3.

    Any thoughts are appreciated.

    Thanks
    Simon

    Hi, I think it is issue in “‘”;
    you can try below code in page.
    <?php echo do_shortcode('[vsel-all-events]'); ?>

    Hi Simon,

    I don’t know why you’re having this problem. The default upcoming events shortcode is:

    
[vsel]

    What do you see in frontend when you visit your eventspage? Or do you have an URL of your website?

    Hi

    @shital-patel – tried that code but get the same issue as before.

    @guido07111975 – I see the shortcode text (and only the text) on the page, here the output on one of my staging sites http://www.testing.fermunity.com/all-events/

    Hi Simon,

    When I take a look at the source code of your page I notice my plugin isn’t active (no plugin stylesheet is present in source code). Did you activate plugin?

    Hi Guido

    the plugin is active. But you pointed me to the solution – apparently there was a stylesheet conflict with another plugin that I was experimenting with. Upon deactivation, it seems to work normally. Thanks for your help!
