Hi there,

I am trying to call a static block form the sidebar widget via a shortcode which happily works in a post:
[block id="6646"]
But when I use it in the “About Author” widget Bio section it literally rendered as “[block id=”6646″]” rather than running the shortcode serverside.

Is there a way I can sort this? I have missapplied in the context of a widget?

Thanks!

R.

Hello,

Unfortunately, you can’t use static block shortcode in About author widget. But you may edit static block and display all the information Autor bio + other content you need.
