I am trying to do the same but with no results….
I am trying to use shortcodes in some custom widgets created by themeforest authors… but I cannot, I don´t know why..
In my functions.php I have the add filter to use shortcodes in widget_text, but even if I use the solution writen by mattie_prescott the widget showns the “text” but not the shortcode…
For example, I am trying to customize the Resporsive theme for a client (bought by him, so I cannot ask the author with my account), and I cannot run shortcodes in the custom widgets like the “resports_text_widget” or the “resports_tabs_widget”...
Can someone help me?
Thanks in advance!
