 * The short code [seo_image_rotator id=Educators] doesn’t appear to be working –
   nothing shows up. What am I doing wrong?

 * in the template you need to echo it like this:
    <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[seo_image_rotator
   id=”1″]’); ?>
 * also the id is a number not the name you have given it, so if its the first rotator
   you made it will be id=1
 * that will fix it in the template however in the past this worked by pasting the
   shortcode into a text widget, this seems to not be the case anymore hopefully
   it gets fixed.
