WP Ajax runs both public as well as closed calls via admin.php. This means that you don’t have access to the whole wp environment, such as do_shortcode(), which is inside /wp-includes/shortcodes.php. This still can get worked around (and as well for oEmbed). See the following example that you could use in your AJAX callback to … Read more
