    This has worked for me in the past, but can you now not use[eazyest_slideshow]in a text widget? When I put in
    [eazyest_slideshow id="242"] in a text widget, it just shows that text on the frontend, rather than the slideshow.

    Oh, and I’ve tried de-activating all other plugins except this one, leaving only Eazyest Gallery and Eazyest Slides activated and the issue persists. And, if it matters, this is under a MultiSite install. If I insert the [eazyest_slideshow] directly into a post, it will show the slideshow, it just doesn’t work in the text widget. I also tried switching to Twenty Thirteen and it also does it.

    Nevermind. I forgot that I need to add code to make PHP code executable inside of widgets. Adding the following into my functions.php allows me to use [eazyest_slideshow] in a text widget.

    // Turn the default text widget into a PHP widget!
add_filter('widget_text','execute_php',100);
function execute_php($html){
 if(strpos($html,"<"."?php")!==false){
      ob_start();
      eval("?".">".$html);
      $html=ob_get_contents();
      ob_end_clean();
}
 return $html;
}
add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');

    thanks, this will help someone else too.
