 * Yes. You can but it takes two steps:
    1. add this filter to your theme’s functions.php
        `add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');`
    2. add a text widget and use your JSON Data Shortcode inside that text widget
 * Basically, the filter allows the shortcode to execute within the text widget.
   The added bonus being that you can now use any/all shortcodes inside your text
   widgets.

 * _Side note and not related to this topic at all:_
 * [@meglio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/meglio/) Please stop visiting other
   plugin’s dedicated support forums and posting links to your site and your plugin.
   That’s spamming and will get you into trouble; your posts were deleted.
 * If you want to help then keep it with this plugin. That would be fine _but please
   stop spamming._
 * **Edit:** Actually, this is the second time this has come up.
