 * Is there an easy way to allow shortcodes to be parsed within my Developer Custom
   Fields? A new WP site was developed for us and we’re slowly taking over the reins
   of management and I appreciate your help!
 * Thanks –

 * What type of field are you using? Is the plugin stripping the shortcodes? I think
   all you’d need to do would be either:
 * `echo apply_filters( 'the_content', slt_cf_field_value( 'my_field' ) );`
 * Or just:
 * `echo do_shortcode( slt_cf_field_value( 'my_field' ) );`
 * The former, I think, will parse the shortcodes as well as apply all other content
   filters. The latter would just parse shortcodes. Depends what you need.
 * I could possibly include parameters for `slt_cf_field_value` to apply content
   filters to what’s returned, but I generally try to leave things flexible for 
   developers, so it’s a low priority.
