 * Plugin works fine on WP versions up to 4.9, broke with 5+.
 * Cannot use the form embed codes as WP 5 blocks any code with <script> tags.
 * Manually entering short codes [CognitoForms id=”1″] with the plugin installed
   does not work either.

 * Found your post as I’m evaluating some forms plugins to use with Square payments.
 * I’m successfully embedding <script> code in WP5+ sites for various reasons by
   using the “WP Coder” plugin. No problems encountered so far. Might work with 
   Cognito, worth a try if you’re stuck.
