Title: Update breaks shortcode Last modified: December 26, 2021 --- # Update breaks shortcode * Resolved [jravelle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jravelle/) * (@jravelle) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-breaks-shortcode/) * Hello, * I updated to the latest version (4.1.6) and my shorcode no longer works. In your documentation it says that there should be a “Use Shortcode” option but that option does NOT exist. Rolling back to version 4.1.4 fixed the issue and allowed me to use a short code again. * Is there a way to get this option to show up / get shortcodes to work again in your latest version? * Thanks - This topic was modified 4 years, 5 months ago by [jravelle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jravelle/).

And rolling back to 4.14 is the only thing that worked. * [Jasnick](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jasnick/) * (@jasnick) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-breaks-shortcode/#post-15199571) * Yes – menus lost on several sites. * [Sue Spencer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/suzzz/) * (@suzzz) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-breaks-shortcode/#post-15202107) * The update has also caused problems for me, same issue, cannot use shortcode and it tells me I need to upgrade to Pro. If that is really the reason this is broken, there isn’t a snowball’s chance in h*ll that I will upgrade. * [mikelawson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mikelawson/) * (@mikelawson) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-breaks-shortcode/#post-15209850) * Broke mine too and haven’t been able to fix it by rolling back. * [caffryfrankel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/caffryfrankel/) * (@caffryfrankel) * [4 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-breaks-shortcode/#post-15215310) * My menu disappeared too!
