Using shortcode in template file

Hi there,

Thanks for developing this simple to use, and lightweight plugin.

I have been using it successfully for a few weeks now on a client’s website while adding the shortcode via the admin. Now, however, there is a page that won’t allow for the shortcode to be added this way. Instead, I need to add it via the page template file. However, adding the php below does not work.

<?php echo do_shortcode('[random_content group_id="12"]'); ?>

I am guessing that I am doing something wrong, but, I am afraid, I can’t work out what. In case it helps, the following does work fine:

<?php echo do_shortcode('[logocarousel id="150"]'); ?>

Any help you can offer would be most appreciated.

With kind regards,
