Form not displaying with "[strong form]" or any variation

What theme are you using? Does it utilize a drag-and-drop page builder?

Hello Chris,

Thanks for your prompt response. The theme is called “Etherna”, it’s an old themeforest theme. It does not use a drag and drop page builder.

It is working fine with the old shortcode, I was just concerned that you might remove the old shortcode in an update.

I just downloaded the theme and will have a look. The old [wpmtst] shortcodes will be removed in 1.17 or 1.18.

The theme also adds a [strong] shortcode to insert HTML <strong> tags. It’s not that common anymore and it’s really not necessary since the WordPress Visual Editor offers bold text. Plus, if you can wrap a word in [strong]‘s you can just as easily wrap it in <strong>‘s and save the shortcode processing :).

I plan to add an option for customizing the word “strong” to avoid conflicts like this in the future; like “fuerte”, “my-testimonials”, etc.

Until then, I suggest you edit the theme to forgo its strong shortcode. Here’s a screenshot of where and how to do that.

//add_shortcode('strong', 'strong')

Or contact me at wpmission.com with a temporary admin login and I’ll gladly take care of it for you.

Thank you Sir, I can handle this. You went way above and beyond, and it is greatly appreciated.
