Hey,
I am wondering if this issue is being looked into?.
Rui’s suggestion of using SPB sections can work quite well but has big limitations.
#1. Ed is hopefully working on a fix/new feature to allow sidebars to be displayed on the event listings page (events calendar plugin) . In that scenario, i could not use spb sections and could not replicate the code using a text widget as already outlined above. (shortcodes don’t work properly in widgets/sidebars)
#2. It’s OK for me when I am initially developing a site to implement spb sections on every page. However, when handed over to a client, I can’t expect them to know or be able to implement the spb section on every new page and/or post they make.
Ideally I could just go into meta options and set a default sidebar for every page and post. Then I would add the necessary widgets and shortcodes to that sidebar. That would be a fully automated option for the client.
As it stands, I can’t use tabs etc in widgets/sidebars so the above is not possible.
Any chance of getting swift shortcodes working in widgets/sidebars soon?
Thanks
