    Hey, I love your app.

    I am currently trying to get it to run a shortcode inside of a text widget wzy, nothing is showing up. I added the <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[jw7-video]’); ?> to the bottom of the single.php file, but I can’t seem to get it to show up?

    Thanks,
    J

    Hi JordanE, happy that you like my product!
    Add the code <?php echo do_shortcode('[jw7-video]'); ?> to the single.php file must work.
    Please, double check your code and let me know, ok?
    Thanks.

    Unfortunately no, it didn’t work. I added it above the footer call.

    That’s the problem, you have to do it inside the loop.
    Please, try and let me know.

    Does it need to be the pro version for it to work? I the theme I am using is making it difficult to decipher where to place the add_shortcode line.

    You can use this php function and the shortcode in both cases, with the free and premium plugin.
