 * I use font awesome in widget title on the sidebars using shortcodes.
    So basically
   wordpress allows the use of shortcodes on the widget title, and using a plugin
   like “Font Awesome Shortcodes” I am able to add Font Awesome to the widget menu.
 * This is a sample of the widget menu:
 * >  [fa type=smile-o] Be Motivated
 * This works in almost all the widgets I use on the site.
 * This is what gets displayed on the site instead of font awesome value for smile-
   o
 * >  [fa type=smile-o] Be Motivated
 * > Any solutions?
   >  Thank you

 * Thanks for letting me know. This sounds related to [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-filter-at-widget_title-to-have-tags-in-it?replies=2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/using-filter-at-widget_title-to-have-tags-in-it?replies=2)
   which I’ll hopefully address in the coming few weeks.

 * Sorry for the long delay in responding. I can’t use a shortcode in the default
   WordPress Text widget. Is that different from you?
 * If you can use this shortcode in the default Text widget, then the problem is
   probably with this plugin. However, this follows the standard best practices 
   for WordPress widgets, so if it doesn’t work in the Text Widget, I likely won’t
   try to get it working.
