Shortcodes do not Work in Widgets

[aamartines]

I’m having a bit of trouble with this theme. When I add shortcodes to widgets, they do not display for logged out users. They display as expected for users who are logged into the site, but display only the shortcode text when logged out.

You can see an example of this behavior on my site here: http://dev.advancedchallenges.com/institute-participants

This is a pretty seriously problem with the theme for me that I would really love to see resolved.

After finally turning off ALL of my plugins (not just the ones that affect widgets/shortcodes/permissions) I found that it was the TinyMCE Comment Field – WYSIWYG plugin that was breaking shortcodes in widgets. Why that was happening I might never know…but it sure was.
