 * Is there a way to display shortcodes in the Post Templates? I have a shortcode
   for a custom date field that applies the appropriate formatting, but the template
   simply show the text of the shortcode – _[shortcode]_

 * I am having the exact same problem:
    [acf field=”sub-title”] works when added
   directly into a post but when used in the getwid post slider template it doesn’t
   display at all. Any ideas?
