 * I do it in functions.php in a child theme, not sure what you want to show.. In
   that case the shortcode is not processed and is printed as is.

 * Any page, my try was to put it in the header. Another plugin with the same functionality
   was working at the same point.

 * But you can test this with any theme, just put do_shortcode() somewhere in the
   header.php

 * Hi,
 * We have checked. It’s working fine here. Only things that **do_shortcode** will
   not work if the **core/embed** block is used inside the shortcode content/post.
   
   Thank you!
