 * Hello, the shortcode with wpfc_service_type stopped working once I upgraded my
   site to WP4.4. The plain shortcode and the series shortcode do work but I really
   rely on the service type shortcode as a long term solution. Is there any chance
   this could be addressed? I love your plugin and it’s worked amazingly for our
   church.

 * Hello Wendy,
 * I tested and confirmed that WP 4.4 and SM 1.9.5 are not in conflict. I confirmed
   that the wpfc_service_type taxonomy is working fine with the WP 4.4 update currently
   installed on my dev server. I tested on several different themes to make sure.
   The specific shortcode I was using is:
 * [sermons taxonomy=”wpfc_service_type” tax_term=”sunday-am”]
 * …where “sunday-am” is my service type slug.
 * The problem may be with your theme. To test this, switch to the standard WP 2015
   theme and view the affected page. If the shortcode works then your theme’s compatibility
   with WP 4.4 is the real issue.
 * If the service type taxonomy does not work with the 2015 theme, then try installing
   a fresh copy of SM 1.9.5 (providing you did not make any custom edits you wish
   to preserve).
