 * I tried to insert an iframe shortcode in header, but I only got the code, the
   banner didn’t display, despite the plugin page saying that shortcodes work

 * Sorry the plugin name creates misunderstanding. The code is added to the head
   section of the page, not the actual “header” (the top of the page).
 * The header format depends on your theme a banner cannot be added by a plugin (
   usually). You can try to add it in the “after body tag” configuration of header
   and footer.

 * Thank you Stefano for the answer
    I tried as you said to include iframe shortcode
   above the header, in the section “Code to be added on HEAD section of every page”.
   Do you mean that shortcodes don’t work there ?
