Shortcode issues with 2.0 development version

Hi James,
thanks for taking the time to test the dev version. The issue you reported only occurs for themes not supporting HTML5, because in that case the gallery shortcode inserts a style tag which was stripped by the wp_kses_post function.
I fixed it now on the dev version, so if you update you should no longer see that css code

As for the Custom Facebook Feed widget plugin I had no issues in running it. Please could you provide additional details? You may send the credentials for your dev site using our contact form.

Hi Marco,

I have updated the development version, this fixes the gallery shortcode issue. Thanks.
My theme was html5 enabled as far as I could tell, I am using a custom child theme for the Genesis Framework.

The issue with the Custom Facebook Feed plugin has to do with custom font colour customisations not applying. This is still an issue.
The like link is also not available.
See this example: https://jamesbat.es/screenshots/facebook-tinymce-bug.png
On the left is without the plugin, the right is with the current dev build.

I am probably going to have to downgrade to 3.9 and use the stable version of the plugin. I am working on an update for a client that needs to go live asap. It’s probably not a good idea to be using development versions of plugins on live sites. However if the issues are fixed it should be okay, what would be your recommendation?

I have emailed you the link to my development area using your contact form.

Thanks, James

Hi James,
I made further modifications to the code, please take some more tests with the latest update.
The problem was related to the wp_kses function stripping html tag/attributes added by shortcodes (i.e. gallery or 3rd party plugins). This is made for security reasons but it was having some side effects. Now I changed the order of processing widget texts, so wp_kses is applied before shortcodes are processed. This should ensure that no tags are stripped.
Generally I wouldn’t recommend to use a dev version on a production site, but I have to say that the current dev version should be enough stable now.

Hi Marco,
I can confirm that this fix is successful, everything seems to be working.
I think I will go with the development version and 4.0 for now.
I will let you know if I find any more issues.
Thank you for the support it is much appreciated.
