Shortcode needs HTML?
-
Hello!
Backstory:
I broke something when I upgraded my WordPress/plugins/themes without backing up anything (I know, I know), but in my frantic attempts to fix Problem 1 of what was broken, I also created a Problem 2 by disabling/activating several plugins and broke my sidebar widget.I use a great plugin to populate my twitter feeds, known as Custom Twitter Feeds. When I disabled/reactivated Gutenberg, the feeds wouldn’t come back and NONE of my shortcodes, for that matter, were working, not just my Custom Twitter Feeds.
I downgraded to 8.6.1 and was able to successfully insert Shortcodes again via the customize dashbaord and using Custom HTML on my Theme and it worked! Out of curiosity, I upgraded AGAIN to 9.0.0 and discovered that it converted the widget into a legacy Custom HTML code block with [custom_twitter_feeds] in it. Voila. Boom. It still works, again.
My question:
Is the Shortcode block in Widgets’ Sidebar supposed to populate correctly like it does in other pages/posts, or does someone suspect a plugin/theme conflict?My Config:
Wordpress 5.5.1
Sydney Theme 1.68
Gutenberg 9.0.0The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]
