# [Plugin: Page.ly MultiEdit] Not rendering shortcodes with cforms

 * Using cforms II and page.ly multiedit with short code support setting enabled(
   yes), however any time the cforms shortcode is added to the multiedit region 
   it only renders html as below:
 * `<span title="Default Form" class="mce_plugin_cforms_img">Default Form</span>`
 * the shortcode is
    `<!--cforms name="Default Form"-->`
 * When that same shortcode is in the Main Content region the content will render
   the actual form as expected.
 * If I append a maul string after the apply_filters line #129 of multiedit.php 
   file I can see that the setting is getting picked up and the apply_filters is
   being called. Example modification for confirmation of line #129:
 * `$me_str = apply_filters('the_content',$GLOBALS['multiEditDisplay'][$index][0]).'[
   AF]';`
 * Any thoughts or direction to get this to render cforms correctly?
 * Page.ly MultiEdit version: 0.9.8.1
    CFORMS II version: 12.2 WordPress: 3.2.1

 * found a work around by changing the view to html prior to setting the setMetaContent
   call in the .js file.

 * hmmm. I wouldn’t say this is resolved. I would recommend the plugin maker to 
   add do_shortcode() to his function so it is automatically done.
 * Can that be done?

 * shortcode support is already there, only tested with [gallery].
 * The latest version has an options panel to enable shortcode support.
