 * I have been told by one of my plugin’s support team, that the “function do_shortcode”
   has been disabled in WordPress when I use my installed security certificate (
   https). How can I go about enabling this? I am trying to redirect my entire domain
   to https, but when I do, any plugin that uses shortcodes stops functioning properly.
   Is this something that needs to be fixed by my hosting company, or something 
   that I need to do?
 * If it is something I need to change in shortcodes.php, does anyone know what 
   code needs to be added to make shortcodes functional with https?
 * When I access “wp-admin” with https, the shortcodes are not even generated. I
   know a little php, but my experience does not go beyond added things to functions.
   php.
 * Here are the respective links for my test page:
