 * Hi,
 * I am working on community website. I thought of using User Submitted Posts plugin.
   But when I put the short code [user-submitted-posts] in page or post and publish
   it. I see that short code is shown as it is. Its not getting encoded.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fshortcode-not-getting-decoded%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Have you tried other shortcodes to see if they work? It sounds like there is 
   a wider problem with your site not being able to interpret and/or display shortcodes.
