After adding both lines in (what Dude suggested and the line I had), it started working all the sudden. Thanks for the above and beyond help. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/adding-a-new-shortcode#post-19814 Wed, 25 May 2011 06:05:12 +0000 AirRocker 19814@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Dude,</p> <p>Thanks for the reply. I tried adding that to the functions.php but still no change. On the other themes I tested, I only had to insert the "facebook-like.php" file into the main theme folder and then add this to functions.php:</p> <p><code>/* Add a call to the Facebook Like File */<br /> if (file_exists(TEMPLATEPATH. '/facebook-like.php')) include_once(TEMPLATEPATH. '/facebook-like.php');</code></p> <p>I also noticed that your functions.php file is not closed. Is this intentional? </p> <p>Thanks for your help. I really hope we can get this figured out so I can get this added. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/adding-a-new-shortcode#post-19800 Wed, 25 May 2011 05:20:38 +0000 Dude 19800@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey,<br /> have you add following code to functions.php:<br /> <pre><code>add_filter(&#39;widget_text&#39;, &#39;do_shortcode&#39;);</code></pre> <p>- otherwise the shortcodes will be ignored by wp.</p> <p>More information can be found here: <a href="http://englishmike.net/2008/07/07/wordpress-quick-tips-3adding-a-shortcode-to-a-sidebar-widget/" rel="nofollow">http://englishmike.net/2008/07/07/wordpress-quick-tips-3adding-a-shortcode-to-a-sidebar-widget/</a> </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/adding-a-new-shortcode#post-19792 Wed, 25 May 2011 02:57:56 +0000 AirRocker 19792@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I know that support is going to be limited on this since it doesn't directly involve your theme... but I'm hoping for a little help here.</p> <p>I came across a site tonight that tells how to quickly and easily add a Twitter share button and Facebook like and send buttons onto your wordpress site. You insert their PHP file into your main theme folder, add a call line into the theme's functions.php file, and then insert a shortcode into the sidebar. Problem is, I don't think this file is getting called properly in the functions.php file because the shortcode is just being displayed as text in the sidebar. </p> <p>I have tested this with three other themes though and it works flawlessly. I'm only having trouble with Avisio. I think there's something weird/different with the way the functions.php file of this theme works. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here's a link to the site with the instructions and the file: <a href="http://digitalraindrops.net/2011/04/facebook-like-and-send/" rel="nofollow">http://digitalraindrops.net/2011/04/facebook-like-and-send/</a></p> <p>Thanks. </p>
