I have the BB theme and have been using the layout shortcode in my footer widget section. For some reason, it is no longer recognizing the shortcode in the widget. It only shows up as text. I have tried disabling all of my plugins but it still wont work. I have cleared my cache. Re-saved the layout template. Nothing is working. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hey Villionaire,
Can you try adding the code below to your functions.php file, preferably on a child theme, and see if it fixes it? Shortcodes don’t work by default on widgets. The code below allows it to. 
add_filter(‘widget_text’, ‘do_shortcode’);
Let us know how it goes!
