List/dropdown appears above title in Widget

I just recently had someone else mention this to me as well. It seems like there is something with using it in a widget that is causing it, and I am looking into it. I will do some more testing today to see if I can find the cause. Previously the plugin had not been tested for use in widgets, so as soon as I find the issue and a fix I’ll push a plugin update. I will reply again to let you know when that happens, hopefully today or tomorrow.

What are you using to put the shortcode in the widget? Is it a plugin? Regular text widgets don’t render shortcodes.

Well, actually it is a regular Text plugin. It renders the shortcode, but above the widget title.
I tried with a different html-widget plugin as well, same result.

Ok, I’m looking into it right now, I see from my test install that it is rendering above the widget title. I did have to add add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode'); to my functions.php file to get the shortcode to even be processed in a text/html widget though. I’ll reply again as soon as I get it squared away. Thanks for your patience.

Just wanted to update you on this. I’m still working on finding the cause and a solution. I’ll let you know when I get it squared away.

OK thanks, it’s not urgent.

(Btw apparently my theme has shortcode support for widgets built in)

Thanks to some advice from Pippin Williamson I was able to find and correct the issue. I’ve pushed a plugin update. Once you’ve updated it, please let me know if your issue has been resolved. Thanks!

Yes, works perfectly now! Thanks!

Good to hear, I’ll mark this as resolved!
