    Hello,

    I am using the text widget to display the mockup graphic. I’m trying to display the graphic on the right while displaying some text on the left. So far I haven’t been able to display anything other than the graphic itself though. I’ve tried writing the text directly into the widget and attempted to use a shortcode that should trigger a textbox display, but nothing has worked. Is their a way to fix this?

    Here’s what I’m able to display so far: https://imgur.com/a/C1yRK

    Hey @uxankco,

    By default WordPress doesn’t allow shortcodes in widgets, but if you add the following to your functions.php within your theme it will allow it.

    add_filter('widget_text','do_shortcode');
