Hi @alanmccoy ,
Thanks for reaching out — we’re here to help!
Regarding your query about the shortcode:
[wdm_auction_listing type=”expired” sortby=”title/date” order=”asc/desc”]
It seems that the shortcode isn’t populating because of a couple of issues:
- Incorrect quotation marks – It looks like curly quotation marks (“ ”) were used instead of straight quotes (” “).
- Multiple values in attributes – Each attribute should contain only one value.
To display expired auctions correctly in Ultimate WordPress Auction, please use the following corrected shortcode:
[wdm_auction_listing type="expired" sortby="date" order="desc"]
Ensure all values are wrapped in straight double quotes and that each attribute has only one value.
If you still encounter any issues after making these changes, feel free to reach out — we’re happy to help!
Thank You
When I post this short on anything but the home page of my website it throws the entire page into a displayable view. Is there something I need to have with it specifically? Ive tried it with nothing and with headers as well as in its own short code box separately

Hi @alanmccoy ,
Regarding your query, we’ve tested the auction listing on our server but were unable to reproduce the issue you mentioned.
In the Ultimate WordPress Auction Plugin, there are two available layouts. You can find and switch between them in the Admin Dashboard under:
Ultimate Auction > Settings > Auction.
For your reference, please check the following link:

We recommend switching the layout from the first to the second, or vice versa, and then checking if the issue persists. If the issue continues after changing the layout, could you please record a video and share it along with your query here?
Thank you
