I installed this plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-responsive-video-embedder/screenshots/) to make the size of the vÃdeos on my wordpress site responsive.
However, i’m having a problem. When i put embed code like this “[youtube id=vrXgLhkv21Y mode=normal]” on the default text widget that comes with wordpress nothing happens, the codeis shown on the site like text.
Can this be a problem of the plugin or is something with my wordpress site for not reading this tags? Plugins conflict?
Shortcodes don’t work in widgets by default. You can however add shortcode functionality to your widgets by adding the following to your
functions.php
file.You should then be able to use shortcodes in WordPress’ default text widget.
