 * Hello there !
 * I tried to use a shortcode for tooltip :
    [https://codecanyon.net/item/css3-tooltips-for-wordpress/7416713](https://codecanyon.net/item/css3-tooltips-for-wordpress/7416713)
 * However the shortcode isn’t executed and it remains in the reference created 
   by your plugin.
 * Is-it normal that shortcodes aren’t executed by your plugin?
 * Thanks!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ftooltip-with-footnote%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi [@gmass69](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gmass69/) ,
 * Shortcodes inside a footnote should execute. Does the shortcode run if you place
   it outside the footnote content? And, when you put the shortcode in the footnote,
   does the shortcode appear in plain text (like “[yourshortcode /]”), or does it
   not appear at all?
 * Best,
    Sean
