 * Hi there,
 * I see some custom markup in the Give form, I believe that’s done via your Goodwish
   theme. This might be a theme customization issue.
 * But can you provide the full shortcodes that you are using here?
 * Also occassionally, the shortcode gets inserted into the editor with stray markup.
   Please switch to Text Mode or Code View and make sure the quotation marks are
   straight, and there’s no stray markup inside the shortcode at all.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Matt,
 * I have tried placing two shortcodes . One is working and other one is not. If
   its issue with shortcodes no one should work. But only one is not working and
   all others are working.

 * Hi there,
 * I can tell you that all our shortcodes work as intended, so this isn’t an issue
   with the shortcode itself. I asked a couple questions and still need your feedback
   on them:
 * 1. Can you provide the full shortcode that you are using? That will help me understand
   more about how you’ve configured them, which is something I cannot do from the
   frontend of your site.
 * 2. You have a theme which is customizing our form markup — have you reached out
   to the theme author for support? It’s possible the theme is intefering with the
   shortcode somehow.
 * Additionally, perhaps there’s a plugin conflict of some sort. I’d suggest using
   the Health Check plugin to troubleshoot that. It will allow you to deactivate
   all plugins and put your site on a default theme ONLY for yourself — your live
   visitors will not see that. We have a write-up on that here:
    [https://givewp.com/documentation/resources/troubleshoot-wordpress-websites-health-check/](https://givewp.com/documentation/resources/troubleshoot-wordpress-websites-health-check/)
 * Then you can enable plugins one at a time and test again until you see the problem
   again. Then let me know which plugin caused the conflict and I can take a closer
   look at replicating the issue for you.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi [@shavini](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shavini/)
 * Our Goal progress bar has several options, some for showing the number of donations,
   number of donors, and amount raised. You can read more about that here:
 * [https://givewp.com/documentation/core/give-forms/donation-goal/](https://givewp.com/documentation/core/give-forms/donation-goal/)
 * Also, to post a new question, go to [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/give/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/give/)
   and scroll to the bottom of the page to create a new topic.
 * That way we don’t SPAM other users with unrelated questions. Thanks!
