Accordian does not work

in v1.5 onward, shortcode were stripped and import ot plugin. you need to install my shortcode plugin https://t.co/q8hLnR8KPb

Hi,
I have v 1.5.6 and created a child theme while working on a current project. I am concerned about what you said for shortcode.
Does it mean that we GENERALLY can’t use ANY OTHER plugin that outputs shortcode but yours?
For example, besides Shortcode Ultimate I am using Justin Tedlock’s Whistles, Advanced Responsive Video Embedder, Nimble Portofolio gallery and a few more…and each of them supplies a shortcode. I’ve noticed that some of them don’t work as expected but didn’t know it was due to the theme restrictions. Or, am I wrong ? Honestly, I do not understand what’s exactly a scope of theme’s restriction for other authors’ plugins using shortcode.

I’ve just read changelog for the new theme update 1.6.1 where it reads:

“- Remove/disable script insertion in theme options for security reason. Read FAQ #11 how to use script with shortcodes”

Where can I find FAQ ?

In this reply you’ve said that already back
“in v1.5 onward, shortcode were stripped and import ot (of?) plugin” , so what’s new about it in the newest version 1.6.1 ?
If I update to 1.6.1
Will I have (even more) problems with plugins like those mentioned above ?
Will I need to re-work all that’s been done so far using those plugins ?

Thanks in advance for your reply

not necessary you need to use my plugin for shortcode, the plugin you mention above will do but the ‘shortcode code’ will be different than mine so you can’t use the code writen above

did all the shortcode from other plugin also did not work? the shortcode shouldn’t be theme related issues.

you can check faq in wp-admin->theme option->faq on top.

Hi,
Thank you so much for your quick reply.
I checked wp-admin -> theme options but there’s no FAQ on top.
I have no idea why.
The page reads “Mesocolumn Theme Options”, that’s it?
( I am quite sure that I would had noticed FAQ earlier if it was there)

I can’t tell exactly what’s working what’s not because I didn’t have time to test heavily (and make a notes on it). Because of being in a hurry to meet deadlines, I just dropped some plugins that didn’t work and used those who work at least partially of what you expect.
For example, Tedlock’s Whistles tabs work fine on posts/pages, but I can’t get the plugin’s acordian to work in widget as I wish.So, well, I can live without it.
I was just reading about your shortcode plugin and would give it a try, so maybe I will use that one instead of Shortcode Ultimate.

Just want you to know, I am one of those who appreciate your work (and gladly support it). If there was an option to buy a premium version, I wouldn’t think twice.
Now, although I am a bit afraid of possible results, I must go ahead and update the theme. Just hope that the result will not cause sleepless nights in order to keep up with my deadlines.

Thanks again !

i see, the faq on top were added in v1.6+, when in theme option, there should be links to

changelog | faq | ….

Thanks! Now it works!

Hi,
I have a concrete example of the free plugin Sexy Contact Form with shortcode that I can’t get to work.
I would just give up and try another one but this one has advantage over all others in that direct language localization is possible.
On the plugin’s support forum I found the topic on the problem that reads:
………….
Question:
I’ve installed the free version of Sexy Contact Form on my WP Blog. I have it all setup and inserted onto my contact page but when I test it, it comes back with an INVALID TOKEN error.
Answer:
Some sites has template structure, which sends additional requests to server during loading, which changes the session variables, that is why you get Invalid Token message.
If you give me access to your administration, I will change the script, so you will not get such message.
…………

Any idea on what could be the problem (regarding theme ) and how to fix it?
(I just asked the plugin’s author too, to give some directions so we can understand what’s all about and fix it without his personal intervention)

Thank you very much for your time
