1.7.4 – Widget sibling pages shortcode not working?

  • Hello! I noticed that my right sidebar widgets that I use with the [sibling-pages depth=”1″] shortcode are no longer working.. just displaying the text.

    The odd thing is that the few pages I have that contain [child-pages depth=”1″] display the correct child page names.

    I did spot this earlier support posting that seemed a bit similar.. but no definitive resolution.

    I just moved my InMotion Hosting shared account to a VPS installation. The PHP version is showing as 5.6.24. The shared hosting is only showing as 5.6.

    Any recommendations?

    Thanks!

    A few things I’ve also tried so far…

    Deactivated, deleted, and reinstalled the plugin.
    Added back the [child-pages depth=”1″] manually
    Added a new text widget with the shortcode… still no good.

    Resolved the issue by adding the following entries at the end of my theme’s functions.php.

    add_filter( ‘widget_text’, ‘shortcode_unautop’);
    add_filter( ‘widget_text’, ‘do_shortcode’);

    No idea why it was working correctly before the move to VPS.
