    Without knowing much else about your theme, you most likely need to add the following to your theme’s functions.php file:

    add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');

    You can read more about that here: https://digwp.com/2010/03/shortcodes-in-widgets/

    Are you using MaxButtons shortcode? Above you have [cash balance] which is not a proper MaxButton shortcode. If you could go a little more in depth into your issue I’d be happy to continue taking a look.

    Ok, I want to use the beautiful button to display another short code on it here is a example of this.

    I Add on the buttons screen under Text The actual words that appear on the button.
    Cash : [cash balance]
    Its suppose to show for example Cash : $25.00

    Thank you for your help

    That’s the issue then, at this time you cannot use a shortcode inside the MaxButtons text.
