 * Hi,
 * I’m trying to add buttons via `<?php echo do_shortcode('[ssbp]'); ?>` but instead
   I see the shortcode [ssbp]. Tested on two sites. Any help will be appreciated!
 * Thanks,
    Vel

 * Hello Vel,
 * You are very close. It is suppose to be ssba. So it looks like this:
 * <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[ssba]’); ?>
