 * Hi,
    I tried to put this shortcode [mr_rating_results_list sort_by=”highest_rated”
   title=”Top Rating Results”] in the widget area in Text block, but in the frontend
   shows the shortcode instead of the top rated posts. Can you help me? Thnak you.

 * There is a widget Rating Results List which you can use instead. So you don’t
   need to use a shortcode.
 * The Text Block widget does not support shortcodes. You will need to add some 
   custom code to your theme to do this. See here [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-in-text-widget-1?replies=8](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-in-text-widget-1?replies=8).
