# Plugin: WP-Table Reloaded – short code in cells

 * I am trying to get this short code to work in the cells of the table. HTML works
   fine. But this short code [expand title=hello]This is my expanding content[/expand]
   just shows the short code and not the desired link to expand hidden text.
 * This short code does work in my posts and pages. Any help to get this to work
   so I can have longer descriptions hidden until needed?
 * Thanks for a great plugin –
 * Mark

 * this short code works with the plugin – collapsing-objects
 * I need to find a way to get the WP-Table Reloaded plugin to recognize this shortcode.

 * Hi,
 * this indicates that the expand Shortcode is not one that uses the recommended
   WordPress Shortcode functionality but implements it by itself.
    Therefore it 
   is not recognized in tables.
 * However, this usually can be fixed easily.
 * Can you therefore post the link to the download page of the plugin that offers
   the [expand] Shortcode?
 * Thanks!
    Tobias
