 * Hi Miguel,
 * I posted in a [resolved] thread about my problem. Guess I shouldn’t have done
   that!
 * So I’m using the generic short code that you put up and not getting anything 
   in return:
 * [facebook=https://www.facebook.com/sydneyoperahouse raw=true]
 * No link, no code, nothing.
 * The site is built on Visual Composer. Could that be part of the problem? I tried
   using the code on its own page and still nothing.
 * Anything you think I could try?
 * The page that I have the short code is: [http://americamultisport.com/event/muncie-may-triathlon/](http://americamultisport.com/event/muncie-may-triathlon/)
