Short code inside the page not working in WordPress

Without knowing further details of your specific installation:

  1. Make sure you are actually previewing live on the web in a browser
    to see if the short-code actually is working.
  2. Make sure you have spelled the short-code correctly, and have the correct syntax. (See theme’s documentation.)
  3. If the short-code requires some special JavaScript library, often other plugins that also use JavaScript, can interfere. I’ve had 3rd party plugins break the default theme functionality on my site. When I deactivate the offending plugin, the theme features work again.
  4. Contact the theme developer’s support forum or directly for answers. Likely others have the same issue or question. If #1 or #2 or #3 above are not the issue, then the developer or other user in a forum may be able to shed some light on the subject.
