Hi there,

What specifically are you referring to? The demo site doesn't have shortcodes in the widget area.

Thanks!

Chris

Hi Chris,

Yes, but how did you do on your sample site?

I'll make sure to vote:)!

Cheers,

Also, please don't forget to rate the theme on your downloads page on ThemeForest when you have the chance. It REALLY helps me :-)

Thanks!

Chris

Hi there,

Thanks for the nice remarks :-)

Unfortunately widgets do not support shortcodes. Please understand this is a WordPress limitation and not a theme issue.

Best,

Chris

Hi,

I am trying to add shortcodes/icons to my widget area, however i just get the code appearing
i.e:

[pagelink page="1"]
Link Text Here
[/pagelink]

Could you please let me know what i am doing wrong (I'm only having trouble in the widget area, shortcodes work fin on the site) Great theme by the way:)!
