 * I don’t understand why there is no shortcode support in the multi line text editor(
   Fields) and on the extra pages.
 * Can you please add this ASAP?

 * Because this is a free plugin that is developed in spare time.
    So, the answer
   to your question is “no, I won’t add it asap, but I will investigate it when 
   the time comes”.

 * Shortcodes are fundamental to the wordpress editing environment.
    Hopefully the
   community on GitHub will make the correction to the code and get this feature
   working properly.
