# Widget not functioning with latest WP update

 * I just updated to WordPress 3.7.1 yesterday and got a white screen. After disabling
   all plugins and then enabling them one at a time. This plugin (Widgets on pages)
   was the culprit.
 * I love the plugin and just wondering if an update is in the works and what the
   approximate timeline might be – before I go searching for another solution.
 * Thanks!

 * I am running 3.7 and have no issues with plugin… sure it is just this plugin 
   and not a conflict between it and another plugin after update?

 * The exerpt was not processing shortcodes, add this to the functions.php and it
   worked.
 * add_filter(‘the_excerpt’, ‘do_shortcode’);
