Okay, that’s what I figured. I don’t know what you mean by “text widget” though. I assume that you are meaning to say that the shortcodes should work in the footer as well.
They don’t seem to do that for me. I can, of course use the actual HTML and all looks well, but that’s not the same. The actuall shortcodes appear on the site, when I attempt to put them into the footer
I tried another plugin and then changed the footer content. Looks like breaking of the theme was caused by some of the content (qTranslate X related stuff), but the shortcode still doesn’t work.
Not sure what exactly you mean by “shortcodes work in the text widget also”
